It is Tuesday and that means it is time for another set of beautiful and amazing colors from ColourQ #278. They are just so perfect for this time of year. I decided to use them to make a birthday card for a sweet friend. I was trying to use supplies that had been loved for some time. I love this cover plate from Lil Inkers, so fun to play with. I hope you will find the time to play along with us this week...thank you so much for taking time to stop by, enjoy your week!

ReplyDeleteLove this Kim, the chevrons are fantastic! So so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThis is so gorgeous, Kim ... love how you've combined the fabulous graphic shapes with those luscious colours ... it's so perfectly topped off with those sweet blooms ... lovely! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteThe pretty inlay colors you've selected certainly show off this background die. I can just see a lot of tedious tweezer work for this stunner. (Even when I use the double side adhesive, it still gets fiddly - but you have done a perfect job!) So very pretty and colorful.The tiny bouquet was just the right embellie. TFS & Hugs
ReplyDeleteThis is positively BRILLIANT!!! SO well done and just perfectly designed!! I know your colors follow the challenge but the way you have used them in your patterns and design is just simply amazing!! Well done and that trio of blooms is just a gorgeous accent to the whole card - Perfection!!! Hope your day is a perfectly happy one!!! Thanks for the cheering up and concern - you are a dear!!! Hugs to you!!
