colourQ challenge #139...


2 more days my friends...yes 2, until I hop on a plane to EUROPE.  This is a dream holiday for me and I'm super pumped.

Here is today's card using the color scheme over at the colourq blog.


I began on a piece of Whisper White.  I scrounged around for a strip of Bashful Blue patterned paper and some Night of Navy patterned paper.  I inked the edges with some Crumb Cake ink, then used it to stamp my petal.  I stamped the floral image onto some Bashful Blue using Night of Navy ink, cut, shaded and raised them on dimensionals before adhering to the paper mat.  I finished it off with a sentiment using Rich Razzleberry ink and added some pearls to the flowers.

Thank you for stopping by!

This is my entry for the Mojo Monday challlenge.  This has been a very busy week, with working 2 jobs, weight training, and writing a final exam, I have had very little time to relax and craft.  I was unable to come up with my own idea and cased this card from Teresa Kline/Paperie Blooms .  Now that I am done my course I have a little more free time. Until next time.

Summer Smooches

Today I am entering my card in two different challenges.  I always like to pick a color challenge with a sketch challenge. I chose the color combo from  Colour Q #130 and the sketch from  Just-Add-Ink . I love this new stamp set Summer Smooches, that will be available April 01-30.  It's super cute a quite versatile. I began my creation a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Tempting Turquoise cardstock.  The first layer is Certainly Celery and measures 4" x 5 1/4".  The second layer is an embossed piece of Whisper White cardstock and measures 3 3/4" x 5".  I stamped the tulips using Melon Mambo, and the other image using Tempting Turquoise, Certainly Celery and Daffodil delight. Here are the sketch and colors:
