Happy Tuesday, everyone! Wow, what a roller-coaster day we had yesterday, weather-wise! One minute it was hot and sunny, the next minute it was thundering and pouring rain! Great day to do some stamping! Arielle’s ColourQ challenge is a unique one this week:
What a cool image! I paled when I saw Orchid Opulence, though….that color strikes fear and trepidation in my heart! But I pushed through my fear, got out Summer Silhouettes and went to work:
I had to admit that once I was done, I liked how the colors went together so nicely! I used some SU washi tape from the Epic Day This & That line, and my flower is from some of last year’s Patio Party DP. I did use some of the new brads; they are VERY cool! Two I used just the top part; the flower center used the brad and the top! The sentiment is also from a new set, Six-Sided Sampler! My sketch is the Retrosketches #69:
Hope you will play along with these fun colors and cool inspiration! You can see the other a-MA-zing creations that the CQC designers came up with at the ColourQ blog! Share yours with us too!
Cassidy told me she wanted to run down our hill! Off she went:
Enjoy your day!

Really a sweet card. I love the flowers you created. So very very pretty.
And that Cassidy is just the sweetest!
Hey LeAnne, beautiful card but I need to know where you store all those discontinued ink pads? Really now who can keep all that stuff? LOL!
You rocked this colour combo, LeAnne!! Love the flower bouquet you created as well as your use of the sketch.
WOW! I love how you combined the colors to create such a fabulous floral scene! Orchid Opulence is also one of those "scary" colors to me but you used it beautifully here. The washi tape is the perfect touch, too. :)
Ooooo...these colors do look wonderful together. LeAnne! Love the tone on tone stamping on the background as well! Gorgeous flower and overall design! Cute Cassidy pictures...she's having so much fun on your hill! Hugs!
Hello!!! your card is gorgeous! love the colors and the images. thanks for sharing.
You're right, the color combo is beautiful and your card is wonderful! Love the pix of your gdaughter and your beautiful yard.
Stunning! Perfect use of the colours in the challenge and loving the layout too. Your weather sounds like ours in the UK! Hugs Bev x
Your card is outstanding!!! Your grand-daughter is ADORABLE!
You did a wonderful job with these challenging colours LeAnne. This such a pretty card. I really like your layered flower.
I love how long Cassidy's hair is getting. Looks fun running down that hill too.
Wow, LeAnne! You have made these colors look absolutely beautiful together! Any purple strikes fear into my heart, so I can understand your fear of this purple. LOVE this card!
What a big girl she is becoming--the perfect young lady. Love your card this week LeAnne, every single element is gorgeous!!
Wonderful card, LeAnne, I am like you where Orchid Opulence is concerned, but you did a great job with the color! When we had some of these retired colors, I never liked or used them, but this color works well with the new ones! Maybe that is what was missing! Have a fabulous Wednesday, hope your weather is better, those storms are always frightening. Cassidy is as cute as ever!
LeAnne I love what you did with this beauty... really like the tape stripes too.... the way you chose the flowers colors is gorgeous! Love it! hugs
PS:... Look how big Cassidy is getting. Can't believe it! My 3 grandkids are coming next for a 3 week summer visit! Can't wait.
