The Silver Stamper

Hi, Stampers!      My submission for The Paper Players Challenge (thepaperplayers.blogspot.com).  This Challenge is #400 so, of course, the theme is "a celebration"!  I thought I would do something a little different.  Not just a PP or birthday, wedding celebration, but celebrating all of those hopeful young folks who will soon be heading off to college!  Hope you like it!

Hi, Stampers! Remember how I mentioned that Challenges have been inspiring me to create something?  A nice, clean and simple sketch by FMS343 Designer Jen Timko inspired this card. I've been so busy with blog issues this week that I wasn't going to enter, but I felt the need to make something  not associated with my laptop . I just happened across a piece of SU! gold-accented acetate (sadly, retired), thought of the this week's Sketch and ta da! I don't think it requires any instructions, really.  Just a tip:  Hide Mini Glue Dots behind the gold dots on the acetate and a couple where the Whisper White piece will cover them.  The WW is "quilted" with the Tufted Dynamic TIEF and popped up with Dimensionals.
