Paper Smooches has put up their new SPARKS challenge.
Check out this cool inspiration photo.

I was inspired by the stripes in the clock, the wood plank and the nautical theme.

I’ve been playing with paper again.  Seems like I got on a serious white cardstock kick for awhile.  This was fun to play with a mixing patterns.

I’ll be back THURSDAY with lots to share.
