ColourQ #285


Hello...My card is for the new challenge at ColourQ #285 and the colors are so bright and vivid, fun to play with. I have a funny story to share, I have been sick, sick enough to miss work complete with fever and body aches. So the funny part of my story is that I thought since I was home I would get a card or two made. So I thought I remembered this weeks color combination, made my card and went to add it to the facebook page for the post today and realized I made a card using last weeks colors...so stupid! But on the bright side I have an extra card to send out. I decided to look for a card to cas after my mistake in colors, my body and brain were just too tired to think much.
Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...enjoy the rest of your week!



Entering my card in the challenge at AAA Cards






This is my card using last week's colors. I am entering it in Darnell's NBUS challenge, it is the final day!

  8. I guess you know by now that I love your coffee themed card, you're so great at making them. Yummy donuts!
    Your first card I find very interesting, it has a clean feel, not too many elements but it still has a lot going on. It's so well designed!

  9. Aww sorry you’ve been so under the weather , Kim! I had this set in and out of my cart so many times, but took it out because I wanted the birthday and had to buy the other one as well. After seeing your perfect card I think I made a mistake. Gorgeous cards and the coffee and donuts are yummy. Hope you feel better soon.

  24. Kim, surely hope that you are feeling so much better by the time I had a chance to visit & enjoy both of your cute cards. I'm really liking the bright cheeriness & that split layout on #1. That is a super design with all the fun embellies & color that you've selected. #2 just made me want some munchies & a nice tasty latte! So very cute. Big hugs & hopes that you are either all well or feeling on the mend. TFS - from Sunny hot South Florida

  25. I thought it was just me that made mistakes with colours!! Your card totally makes me think of a motel sign in Arizona. I'm not entirely sure why, I've never been to Arizona. Very odd but that's the way my crazy brain works. Love the colours and the layers too. Awesomeness!!
