Paper Playtime Challenge-Happy Mardi Gras

***If you are looking for the I love Lucy Blog Hop, click HERE***


Good morning my bloggy friends.

First off, let me tell you how excited I am to be on the Paper Playtime Design Team!!  I am so honored to be joining all of the fabulous and talented ladies over there.  So I couldn't wait to make my first project for them!!

Speaking of which, for this week's challenge you have a choice of 3 themes.  I went with the purple and green in honor of Mardi Gras...

This cute little bear is from The Beary Scrap.  I fell in love with this little guy since I first saw him months ago.  I finally got the nerve to give him a try.  I love how he came out, although I still need some practice with the Mulberry Paper that gives it the fluffy look. 

The mask and joker's hat were cut using Designer's Calendar Cart.
I added some green feathers, little bit of bling, yellow pearls and some purple acrylic paint.

The cute flowers are Prima Fancies.  Aren't they adorable?
The sentiment is computer generated and then cut out with a ticket die cut.

Thank you all for coming by.  Make sure and head over to Paper Playtime to check out everyone's projects.  Plus, be sure to enter your own project for a chance to win some great prizes!!
Good luck everyone!!
