Paper Smooches Sparks Final Challenge: there's snow one like you




Poppin' in here speedy quick on this windy, rainy Halloween....I hope it clears up for all those trick or treaters...we have 2 bags of candy from Costco that we need to give out!

Disclaimer:  No snow peeps were harmed for this card

cardstock:  stampin' up basic black, ranger watercolor  stamps:  paper smooches cool dudes/crystal clear & sentiment sampler  ink:  ranger archival black  other:  paper smooches/cool dudes dies, peerless watercolors, mme wood dots

So, if you've been following me, you know that I'm a sketch-a-holic.  I've been so busy with DT work this year that I haven't been able to necessarily play as much as I generally do.  I did want to make sure that I participated in the FINAL Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge.  So sad to see this challenge go away :(

Check out the last Designer Draft:




I had so much fun watercoloring this morning...yes, this morning.  I didn't make this for anyone specific but wouldn't it be perfect for someone expecting their 2nd child.  It would take a special person to not get grossed out by the girl being in the mason jar....Non-crafty peeps might not 'get that'.

Over the years, I've entered several Paper Smooches Sparks Challenges....Here are a couple of my favs:







I'd love to see some of your favs that you've posted!

Love your card for the final Sparks, but I love how you gave us a reminder of your favourite cards. You really tackled the sketch and I love your design. I hope you get lots of cute trick or treaters. Tonight I am not expecting any, not that we live in the country it is not likely--I have candy just in case and it won't go to after! Last year in the subdivision we had 250!
LOOOOOOOOOVE your take on our sketch challenge! You always create the most amazing cards, Amy! LOVE LOVE LOVE! And I love that you've shared your fav PSS creations! I agree--- these are FABULOUS:)
THANKS so much for joining in the fun with our PSS challenge! We have a NEW monthly challenge starting Nov. 1st on the Paper Smooches blog (http://papersmooches.blogspot.com)!!! Hope you play along with us;) <3

You've created a marvelous *welcome new baby* card for the PS Sparks finale, and the showcase of previous entries are so delightful! Yes, sad to see the weekly challenge end, but did you see the inspiration for the new monthly challenge? I know you'll rock it *grin*
