PaperSmooches Sparks Challenge: Picture Perfect

Merry Christmas my friends!  I'm popping in to share two cards for our new PaperSmooches Sparks Challenge.  We have a gorgeous inspiration photo for you today.  You could take it so many directions:  wedding, color, texture.  Love it!
For my first card, I was inspired by the colors.  I used the new Flap Happy set.  I love the clean, whimsical feel of this card and this stamp set has a ton of images that are great to layer images. This was mailed to my nana a couple weeks ago as she recovers from her shoulder surgery.  

 
The second card keys off the colors and the texture.  I die cut and adhered several of the snowflakes together for added texture.  The snowflake images are from the Circle of Honor set.
How does the inspiration photo inspire you?  I'd love to see you play along.
