i believe in magic

*if you're looking for my inky paws sketch challenge post - please click here**

i had an unexpected few minutes to get crafty today, so i was excited to try out the latest paper smoches sparks cool shades challenge! the colors are super fun, trendy and a little neon even! what's not to love?



for some reason, my head went christmas with those colors, weird, right? but i do LOVE how the card turned out! :)

i used four different paper smooches stamp sets for this non-traditional christmas card: joyful greetings, swanky snowdudes, my peeps and gently seasoned!


i have been in a coloring mood lately (instead of paper piecing...wow, i know!). the good and bad with that is that i am not very good yet and i mess up a LOT! lol! so on one hand, i want to color, and on the other hand, i'm no good. ha ha!! sigh.
anyway, i colored the images (cough cough) with copics and then cut them out and popped them up.


i just love that little bird looking up at the snowman waiting for him to come to life (he totally believes!). and yeah, that's why i chose that particular sentiment too! 
after a few snowflakes and lime green enamel dots (um, LOVE those by the way - lime green snow - yes please! ha ha!)!

so that's it! i'm glad i was able to play along and share a bit of some neon christmas with you!
enjoy!
