Paper Smooches Sparks | Cool Shades Challenge

This week's Paper Smooches Sparks Cool Shades Challenge is one of my favorite color combos: Aqua Mist, Limeade Ice, Kraft, and Soft Pool (Stampin' Up!)... and the name is perfect: Oceanside.


I used Paper Smooches' Knick Knacks stamp sets (the rocking horse and sentiment), with PTI's Fabulous Frames and Bountiful Banners dies. A while back  Stampin' Up! was having a sale on cardstock and I picked up a couple of packs of textured cardstock... and I used the Kraft color here. It is more textured than Bazzill and not as heavy, which makes it great for layering on cards. 

The stars were punched with an old Stampin' Up! star punch and topped with PTI Aqua Mist buttons.


It is looking quite stormy outside, so Mark, the kids, and I are all up in our office working on various projects (well, Jack is flinging Angry Birds and Piggies across the room...). I hope you have a wonderful weekend and thanks for stopping by!
