NEW Paper Smooches SPARKS challenge Nov. 17-30

Hello, friends:}

**Please click HERE for my Play Date Cafe  post!! 

Today we start another photo inspired challenge over at Paper Smooches SPARKS blog. 

I kind of went overboard {again} this week--I couldn't help it! I just love using my Paper Smooches stamps! For this first card I used the flowers as my inspiration. I used my Restoration Crate Paper along with three stamp sets from Paper Smooches [Perky Plants, Friendly Flowers, and Swanky Snowdudes]. I tied on some seam binding and used some Thicker alphas. LOOOOOOOOOOVE how this turned out! Love the bright colors! 
For my second card...I used the colors {green, blue, silver/gray} as my inspiration. **NOTE:  After finishing my card, I noticed that the green is more of a yellow/green. OY! I wanted to make a masculine card with these colors--so I pulled some Authentique [Splendid] and Pink Paislee [News] papers and paired them with three stamp sets from Paper Smooches [Hot Concoctions, Boob Tubes, Alphadot]. I just love using my Alphadot stamp set! I used it for the sentiment--perfect! I LOOOOOOOOOVE how this turned out!! 
I have to explain the 3---I'm giving this card to my dad for Father's Day next year. There are three kids in our family. :}

That's it for me today--but be sure to stop by the other Paper Smooches SPARKS DT members' blogs and leave them some love

And don't forget to stop by the Paper Smooches SPARKS blog for more details. This challenge ends Nov. 30th. I cannot wait to see what you make!!!

THANKS so much for stopping by! Be blessed:}
