Hello


Hi there! I couldn't resist inking up some of my Paper Smooches stamps again to participate in the most recent SPARKS Challenge!!! Have you SEEN the prizes that are up for grabs?!?! Oh my word!! Who wouldn't LOVE to get their hands on all of that Paper Smooches goodness!!! I know I sure would!!

Here's the inspiration photo:


And here's my creation:


I did a lot of stamping and paper piecing on this card and I think it turned out kinda funky and fun! I tried to pull in many of the elements from the inspiration photo---the color palette, flowers, rustic touch of wood, ribbon, pearls, rhinestones. Here's a closer peek:
