colourQ #234

Happy Tuesday and time for this week's new colour palette at the colourQ!

Isn't this the prettiest hair pin? I love the resin flowers. I took inspriation this week from Joni nina Andaya's Muse card at CASE Study Challenge #183 and the sketch from the current CAS(E) this Sketch #69 and used one of my favourite WPlus9 set Fresh Florals.

WPlus9 Birthday Celebration Week 1 - -Comfort Zone

Right in at the tail end of WPlus9 Birthday Celebration week 1 challenge.  IMy favourite WPlus9 stamp set is Fresh Cut Florals, but for some reason I was always having difficulty lining up my images.  I went back to a post Dawn did on lining the images up and it helped so much. So my card is actually a CASE of Dawn's card, dangerously close to a copy. So credit where credit is due. It is really hard to perfect--perfection.

The challenge was to create a card based on our own comfort zone.  My comfort zone is CAS and although but if you notice that my design is also clean and layered--that is my alter-ego!  LOL  I love a white palette and lots of breathing room in my designs.  With the Fresh Florals stamp set I love to play, I love using the die cut and adding layers of ink.  So this may not be CAS it is definitely in my comfort zone.





Have a great weekend.

Dynamic Duos #68 and Simon Says Stamps

Happy Saturday!

It's time for this week's new colour duo at Dynamic Duos.

This week is a mix and match week.  We pick Perfect Plus and you pick ????

For my card this week I chose green as my choice to create a sympathy card I am sending out to a friend. I think that plum and green are a good choice for sympathy cards.

Hope that you come and play along with us this week!

We would love to see your creations!

CASE Study #153

Sharing a card for this week's CASE Study Challenge.  Another beauty to inspire us from this month's Muse Jennifer McGuire.

I was inspired by the flowers and the thoughtful sentiment.  I created a circle with my flowers using die cuts from WPlus9 Fresh Florals, new to me.  Today my parent's celebrated their 64th wedding anniversary!  What an accomplishment, both still so very much in love, always holding hands and such wonderful role models to have.  This card is for them.
