Paper Smooches SPARKS Feb. Cool Shades {post1}

Hello, friends:}

**After 9amEST--please scroll up/down for my Mama Elephant highlight post! 

Today we start another weekly challenge over at Paper Smooches SPARKS blog!! The third week of the month is always a Cool Shades challenge.  

This week we are inspired by the following color story "Carnival":

Chocolate, Cream, Aqua, and Cherry Red

I think that "cherry red" is more pink red, so I pulled out LOTS of Crate Paper collections to match this color story. 

I made a simple design (based off of THIS LO) that is distressed and a bit crooked. LOVE!! I used two of my NEW PS dies {Duo Die4 and Butterflies2}. I LOVE these new dies--they are so easy to use!!! I also used my favorite PS arrow stamp {Spookalicious}, as well as sentiments from Spiritual Sampler and Happy Camper. LOVE x1000000! 

Ok-- so you might be asking why I used "white" paper?! Well, I promise you that the grid paper is more creamish in person than in this photo! And that brad is cream too! PROMISE:)

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.
