Hello everyone! Welcome to a new week at The Paper Players. Claire here and I'm your hostess for this week. Thanks so much to those of you who entered Jaydee's feminine theme challenge last week. The gallery was filled with gorgeous, glamorous, girly cards.

This week, it's "COLOR" week and I've chosen a bright and bold color palette for us to play with. I hope that you find it as much fun as I did.

I'm excited to see your creations!

Happy Saturday and welcome back to the Paper Players. A huge thank you to all of you who played along with our Feminine challenge last week. It really was wonderful to see such a diverse array of feminine cards and was proof that feminine is more than just pink and lace. From sophisticated black to vintage collages, and from drinks to dancing, it was a fabulous gallery.

Before we get to our HEADLINER, let's see the top picks from our DT this week:

And now on to our HEADLINER.

Amanda

Amanda's pretty in pink and peach creation is right on trend and I love it paired with the light mint green and deeper teal. The panels add wonderful interest and texture without detracting from that fabulous sentiment. The scalloped edges ensure that your eye is drawn right into the sentiment and the soft gold, peach and green florals frame her sentiment beautifully. The light pink enamel dots work so well with the gold dots from the inside of the flowers and the whole composition keeps your eye moving around to see more.

Congratulations, Amanda. You are my HEADLINER this week. We hope that all our winners will collect your badges and display them with pride.

Don't forget to join us again tomorrow. The fabulous Claire has a fresh, clean and bright color challenge for you all.
