Are you ready to play
this week's Pals
Paper Arts Inspiration Challenge (PPA41)? Everyone is
invited to join
in
the fun using any
brand of stamping supplies. Check out
the PPA Design Team's Stampin'
Up! inspired samples.
The PPA41 inspiration photo below will certainly get your juices flowing. I was inspired by the colors and simple floral design on the pitchers.

-
Grab your Paper Piercing Template (Stampin' Up! Mat Pack) and line up the holes for brads with precision.
- Cropping the flower centers with the new circle punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (118309, Summer Mini) gives a delightful lift when popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals.
- The heart from the Tiny Tags stamp set is a sweet finish when pulled together with Linen Thread. NOTE: Tiny Tags is still available! Click for all Occasions Mini Catalog Carryover Products.
- Tie polka dot ribbon first. Gently twist the ends so the polka dot side is face up . . . however, it looks cute polka dot side down, too.

Mary, I’m not sure why my name came up from Pals Paper Arts. That last comment was from me, Gina.
Another wonderful card and terrific take on a challenge. You’re the master at challenges! Love everything about this one.
Love the flowers! Have a great weekend 🙂
Matchy, Matchy, Mary! I’m meeting you in one hour! I’m so excited!
Love it, Mary! The tag is the perfect touch! Have fun this weekend…wish I was joining you!
Love this!
I like the 3 different colors of the flowers.
Great job on the Challenge. The colors you chose look actually like the Challenge. Love how the colors, they are so lively, but yet subtle. Thanks for sharing.
Mary, I just read your niece Kris’ blog and that she’s coming to visit you (and why) — CONGRATS! You can make any stamp set look good — this one held no attraction for me, but you’ve really brought it to life and demonstrated (literally) it versatility!~ Thanks!
What a fun way to use this set.
Loved the popped up flower centers!
I really like the ‘panel’ design – such a bold and cheery card!! Have a WONDERFUL time this weekend!! I’ll be thinking of you all and missin’ ya!!
Cute, cute card! The colours are so much fun together! This looks like a great challenge and I will have to try to play along this week!
Thank you for your comment on my blog! I really appreciated it!
Smiles,
Lesley 🙂

Creative use of that bitty punch on the flower centers as well as the tiny tag : )
