ColourQ News

The ColourQ color challenge is one of my favorites, so imagine my excitement when Arielle asked me to be on her Royal Court Design Team!  Her style is so clean & fresh & fun, I hope that I can follow in her footsteps to create some equally fun things using the great inspirations she finds!  Today, she is tempting us with these adorable little felt booties:

Look at those little peacocks!  Aren’t they adorable?  I want to go stitch some of these up myself!!  Meanwhile, I have to be satisfied with making a thank you card for a friend who so kindly stepped in and helped at my daughter’s reception. I popped open the Flight of the Butterfly set and made some brightly colored winged things!

This is a long card, sized to fit inside a business envelope because I am putting a nice SU gift certificate inside!  See, she’s a stamper too!  So I know she’ll appreciate that as well as the card!  It’s not evident in the photo, but the white background panel was embossed with the Polka Dot Texturz plate by SU; most everything else about this card is pretty straightforward. It may be a bit busy but that’s how butterflies are!  Here’s a little closeup:
