It's never too late...

Happy Tuesday!  I hope everybody's week is going great so far.  Today I have a cute little card to share using the colors from this week's ColourQ Challenge, the sketch from Mojo Monday, and the Spectacular Spectacles Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.


I just love those colors together!  And I thought that square card sketch was really cute, and worked perfectly with my idea for the spectacles challenge.  And any excuse to use Paper Smooches stamps is a good one!  Now for the paper yummies:

I've been wanting to use these sunglasses from the Paper Smooches Get Outta Town set since I got it last month, and this was the perfect opportunity.  I created the background using Versamark ink, then stamped the sunglasses in red ink for the focal point (pun intended! LOL!).  I added some little rhinestones to the glasses and Glossy Accents to the lenses:
Have you played along with the Spectacular Spectacles challenge yet?  There are some seriously cute examples in the Moxie Fab World!  You've still got plenty of time too - just under 2 weeks left. 

Here's where I'm playing:
Paper Players Challenge #93: Tic Tac Toe (I used the "blue, free space, ribbon" row)
