Paper Smooches SPARKS challenge {12.15-12.28}

Hello, friends:} 

**Please click HERE or scroll down for my Play Date Cafe  post!! 

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

This week we are getting inspiration from these decorated A&W containers. SOOOO cute! And perfect for the holidays! Of course, I was inspired by lots of elements...1) the Christmas theme 2) the multiple reindeer  and 3) Rudolph's nose.  How does that translate into my card??? 1) The Christmas theme made me think of Christmas songs--so I stamped some of the song "Deck the Halls" using my Paper Smooches Alpha Dots stamp set. 2) Next, I saw multiple reindeer and thought I would dress up [several of] the Dachshund image from the PS stamp set Santa Paws. His sweater was created by stamping his body on patterned paper, cutting part of it out, and adding marks for his neckline, arms, and body. I think the sweaters turned out FAB! 3) And finally I added a red nose to the top dog:)
