ColourQ67 and FTL122

DSCF6132

Well, here we are, another Tuesday and another ColourQ!  It’s always exciting to me to see what Arielle comes up with each week.  This week’s inspiration is so cute, I can’t wait for Cassidy to be able to wear something like this!  Here you go:

cqc67Just look at that little bottom and that sweet fun tutu!  I don’t have a single bird stamp and I really was not in enough of a do-it-yourself creative mood to create one, so I just went with the colors and the Fall to Layout #122 to create my birthday card:

Everything is SU except for the Taken with Teal DP, which is from Graphics 45’s On the Boardwalk, the MS glitter on the star and the Kiwi bling.  I loved stamping on the vellum so that the colors of the papers show through:

And don’t you love those cute little pompoms?  I was worried about them sticking, but I ran a line of Tombow Multi-Adhesive along the edge of my DP and used a clothespin to anchor them on each end and it worked perfectly! 

We would love to have you play along at the ColourQ…so stop on over; Arielle has added some new designers who are scrapbook-savvy, so there’s even more fun stuff to check out and be inspired by!  TFL!
