ColourQ 124

Happy Valentine’s Day!  Arielle has a sweet color combo for the ColourQ inspiration today:

What a pretty “bouquet” of hearts and flowers!  This is my translation:

A little white doily was brayered with Pretty in Pink ink; the Tiny Teacup was stamped in Cool Caribbean and mounted on Cool Caribbean and Real Red Nesties.  Some red & white baker’s twine forms the “steam” for the sweet little hearts.  And hearts don’t necessarily have to be a Valentine’s card, so I used a “thinking of you” sentiment instead.

I hope you’ll play along with these lovely colors; run on over to the ColourQ to see what the other stampers have designed, and share your creation as well!  Can’t wait to see them!

Doesn’t this cute little shirt make you want to stamp some purple pears?!

You're Valentine card is certainly my 'cup of tea' and a perfect translation of the Color challenge. Yes, Cassidy's shirt wants me to stamp out pears!!! Happy Valentine's Day!

Well that's just stinkin' cute! LOVE those little steamy/balloony/twined-attached hearts!

Beautiful card. I love the little steam heart.
Only a true stamper would see that shirt and think that. LOL
Happy Valentine's Day!
Hugs,
Linda

Very cute, LeAnne...LOVE the steam coming from the tea cup! And Cassidy is as cute as ever...I never noticed before what beautiful blue eyes she has!

I love this card! I agree with everything everyone said above me: the steam twine and hearts coming from the tea cup are so clever!

Jen Mitchell said...

The mystery of the pink doily is solved! That looks FABULOUS! Nice take on the steam!!

Super cute, LeAnne!! Love the brayered doily! BTW, Cassidy looks older in that photo - wow...

Betty Benton said...

Wonderful card! You are an overachiever -- not only do you have the colors but your card mimics the photo too!!
Isn't it funny how stampers look at clothes -- either as possible color combos or stamping patterns!!
