Happy Everything



The most recent Paper Smooches SPARKS Challenge is all about polka dots!!! I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE polka dots, so I couldn't wait to play along!
 
Here's the inspiration photo:

 
 And here's my polka dotty creation:
 

 I'm going to give this card to one of my good friends whose birthday is coming up in March! It's colorful, fun, and happy---just like her!

Well...I'm heading to the salon to get my hair cut and highlighted! WOOHOO!! I'm so excited! I haven't had my hair done since last May (before we headed to New Zealand), so I'm loooooonnnnngggg overdue!!! Then, my husband and I are meeting up with some friends at a new local brewery for drinks!

Hope you're having a FABULOUS week!

This card is uber polka-licious! Love all of the fun dots!

Yay for time at the salon! I haven't been to one in ages, but I know it's always a treat to go. Enjoy! :)

Lovin your polka dot project Lisa!! you know I'm over the moon for the little round ones myself,but alas I have no paper smooches to play with...so I'll just thoroughly enjoy yours! If I don't get a hair cut soon, I think they'll send out the national guard for that strange fuzzy creature in Ohio LOL!! I go every 4-5 week and it's been almost 8 ~YIKES!!!

Hey, Lisa! Remember how you said you hadn't gotten enough snow last week? Well I think I found your missing snow! We are under a blizzard warning to start tomorrow and it looks like we could get 18 to 24 inches! Jealous? I'm not sure I want all that all together at once! Anyway love love your polkadot card. This is so sweet :-)
