Hello and happy Monday! I'm popping in to share my card for this week's PaperSmooches Sparks Challenge. Check out the inspiration photo below. I didn't go with the fun little image or the thought bubble, but rather picked up on the soft/subtle water color background. You could go any which way with this inspiration photo!
To made this card, I played along with several new PaperSmooches goodies. Can you name them? Well, don't worry and you don't need to name them! I used two stamps sets: Spiritual Sampler and Leafy Greens along with the fabulous new Loopy Leaf Die. I inked the loopy leaf stamp in several soft colors before stamping to create a watercolor feel without using water colors.
I hope you like the card and that you pop by and visit the other fabulous PaperSmooches Sparks design team members:
But, before I go, guess what? I get to go to Vegas (for a quick trip!) because my team won a fabulous client service award. I don't typically chat too much about my job, but I am so very proud of my team and am thrilled to accept the award on behalf of them!
LOL, your question was easier than mine! I have those leafy dies and stamps coming to me soon! Those colours are just beautiful :) Have fun in Vegas, baby!
