CSC #158

IMG_2513





Playing along with this week's CASE Study Challenge. I was determined I was not going to miss another challenge. Do you think maybe life is starting to slow down a little bit? I wonder.


This month's Muse in the amazing Kelly Racoosin and this is the inspiration that we had to work from.




I turned Kelly card to portrait orientation and used bold vibrant colours with Waltzingmouse Funky Florals. I love this set, the images stamp beautifully. Here is my take on the challenge.

colourQ #200, Trendy Tuesday Feature and news from 12 Kits



Happy Tuesday and time for this week's new colourQ! 

Also today I have a card featured at Paper Crafters Library for Trendy Tuesday. A card I created for colourQ #197. 

Tomorrow is this month's reveal for The 12 Kits of Occasions! A few changes are happening this month. Even though the kits have been around for a couple years now we are finally launching our blog that you can visit HERE to see a sneak peak for this month, find the link to our Pinterest Page and new Facebook Page.  This month's projects are being revealed on the 31st.




Today marks our 200th colour palette for colourQ! Hope you come and play along with us.




My card features Rosie Posie, I doubled matted the card base and then adhered my flower to a stitched mat. I love how the daisy fits on the scalloped circle from Limitless Layers and yes there is a sequin in the centre, why did I fight them for so long!

colourQ #199



Happy Tuesday and that means time for a palette at the colourQ!
Check out the beautiful table runner that Arielle use to pull this week's colours from.




For my card this week I used a new to me stamp set from Avery Elle, I believe it is from their very first release! Love it and I think I will be using it a lot more. I am going to be submitting  this to both the Moxie Fab World Birthday Card Challenge and Seize the Birthday Anything Goes Challenge.









Drop into the colourQ today and see what the rest of the design team has come up with to inspire you.  Hope that you join us this week.

colourQ #195



Happy Tuesday and time for this week's new colour palette from the colourQ!
Another fabulous colourQ, I don't know how Arielle does it.




This week I used the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches, even though I knew I wouldn't make the deadline, for my card. I just loved the sketch. I used my Verve Scalloped Trimmed Trio die to create a cool funky circle strip to replace the scallop strip on the sketch.  Here is my card for this week:

CAS(E) this Sketch #24 & CFC99



Happy Monday!
Sharing a card for this week's CAS(E) this Sketch and the CAS-ual Fridays Birthday Bash challenges. I open up my new Basic Grey Knee Highs and paper pad and what a beautiful collections of papers it has. I selected this pretty floral pattern and not sure why but that scarlet colour made me think about the cherry tree blossoms we will be seeing around here over the new few weeks.
