ColourQ94

CQC94 banner

Happy Tuesday, peeps! I am still recovering from convention, phew! So much information to absorb! I was happy to get some stamping time in just for fun, using Arielle’s ColourQ colors for today:

Perfect summertime colors, don’t you think? I totally CASEd a card from Kelly the Gingham Girl; I substituted Wild Wasabi for the Green Galore because I wanted to use the Patterns DP that I had, along with my little flag die. What do you think?

I did not put pearls on mine, but just strung the banners along some baker’s twine, then added a button, some embossing and a sentiment from Happiest Birthday Wishes:

I used my markers to color in this fun sentiment from the same set!

I hope you’ll find these yummy summer colors to your liking and that you’ll play along with us. Sashay on over to the CQC blog and strut your stuff; you might just be crowned the QUEEN!

Your cards are SO NEAT. It's clear that you are a perfectionist where measuring and placement is concerned.

Love the colors and patterns you've chosen. It's a rare day that I love something multi-colored, but this takes the prize! Adorable! Of course, the grandbaby is the all time prize winner EVERY time. :)

Beyond cute LeAnne! Love what you did with these crazy colors! The little flags are ADORABLE and I love all the baker's twine! Miss Cassidy looks like she is not really sure about this ocean thing--Arden was the same way at first but now she's spend all day in the waves! :-)
