colourQ #218 & Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge

IMG_3221


Happy Tuesday and time for another new palette from the colourQ!




For my card this week I used my new Paper Smooches Merry Motif stamps and dies. I just love the little chubby ornament image. I die cut and coloured the ornaments in three of the four colours, die cut a stitched mat, decided where I was going to place the ornaments and then drew the strings with a Zig writer.  The white focal panel was mounted to the forth colour. 

I am submitting this to the current Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge Anything Goes.
