Welcome to Pals Paper Arts! (PPA for short) The PPA Design Team is a passionate group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators who love to play a variety of paper craft challenges. Dedicated to using primarily Stampin' Up! products in our challenge designs, the Pals welcome the use of any brand of product by our participants. It is the goal of the Pals Paper Arts Challenge to inspire our virtual stamping pals, while sharing and having fun!
This weeks challenge is an Inspiration Challenge. Simply use the provided photo from Pottery Barn Kids to inspire your project. You can draw inspiration from the photo's elements, colors, or even overall theme.
Once you have finished your project upload it to your blog or public gallery. When uploading to a public gallery please use keyword: PPA3. Use Mr. Linky, found below, to link your projects here. (Please provide a direct link to your challenge post .) We can't wait to check them out!
Mr. Linky will close at Noon (CST) Tuesday, August 18th.
We'll announce our Pals Paper Artist Picks Wednesday, August 19th.
For inspiration, check out this week's creations by the Pals Paper Arts Design Team as well as our talented Featured Artist:
