It's Tuesday and that means there is an amazing new color combination over at ColourQ #289 and I hope you will find the time to play along with us.The colors are soft and sweet and so much fun to play with. I remembered seeing this flower made using Circles and Scribbles from PTI but for the life of me I can not remember to give credit for the idea. Love the look these fabulous dies made. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...enjoy your week!

This colour combo looks quite scary to me but you have CASed it down perfectly. The flower is such a creative idea x
ReplyDeletelove how you used the scribble die to make your flower - wonderful card, Kim (i pinned it!!)
ReplyDeleteWOW - your sister must think you are "ONE in a MELON" to be the receiver of those fantastically fun socks!!! You are so lucky - they look so comfy and awesome!! Your card is lovely and I love the way you created your flower with that die - so cool and fresh looking!! Your sentiment is an incredible one as well - on my ever growing wish list!! You are so fun and I hope your day is super delightful!!
ReplyDeleteNo way ,your sister made the socks for you! Yes, they are wonderful and so is your beautiful thank you card! Love the leaves added to the scribble die great idea Kim!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card. Love that circle scribble as a flower, and it makes such a great focal point. And, your socks are amazing. Love all those colors and stripes.
ReplyDeleteVery bright & beautiful CAS. Love this pretty rose die, and lovely against the clean white. Also love your watermelon sox. Bet you smile every time you pull them on. Lucky you to have such a talented & sweet sis to make these cosies for you. TFS & hugs
ReplyDeleteWhat a great sister! Does she want another, much older sister, by any chance?! I just love those watermelon socks! And I love your scribble flower card, too, Kim! I saw it used as a flower on yet another blog over the weekend (can't remember whose) and I love it used that way - better than any other way I've seen. Maybe I'll finally break down and put some ink on my set!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteYet another great use for those PTI scribbles!! They have been on my list for probably a year now! Such a pretty card, Kim. And I totally thought your watermelon socks were an official inspiration photo ... so surprised when I read they were just your socks!!! I tell ya, my socks would NOT be inspirational for card-making. Your sister did a wonderful job making them. I wonder how long it took her.
ReplyDeleteThe most difficult challenges for me are the color inspiration ones. Closely followed by photo inspirations. I love how you're able to make one card after another using all the different color schemes. This design is really eye catching, love that rose!
ReplyDeletePretty pretty card Kim!! And what FUN socks!!
ReplyDeleteAdorable card...I need to play with my scribbles!! Love those socks!!
ReplyDeleteKim a gorgeous card for colourQ and those socks are just awesome!
ReplyDeleteWatermelon socks??? How cool are they!! I'd love to know how these are made too, would be fascinating watching the machine and seeing them come alive row by row. Those scribbles are so cool and what a great idea to team it with the leaves, makes the perfect flower!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful use of the circles and scribbles dies Kim! Love!
ReplyDeleteThose socks...wow! I am a knitter, but have not yet attempted socks...what a labour of love gift :)
Your card is absolutely fabulous and guess what! I have my first (and only, so far) PTI dies...the scribbles! So excited to use them - and you've definitely sparked ideas! Those socks...love, love and love! I'm a bit of a 'sock addict' (given where we live, totally understandable), and these are nothing short of awesome! What a wonderful sister to knit these for you! WOW!
ReplyDeleteHugs~c
Gorgeous scribble bloom, Kim ... those bold die cuts are just fabulous! Had to smile as we both used scribble circles for flowers for our (different) Design Teams this week ... how's that for muse across the miles!! LOVE your cosy warm watermelon socks ... your sister sure is talented ... runs in the family then!! Hugs & Bisous Bisous, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteSweet card! Sweet socks! Gotta agree with Anita...you and your sister are both very talented and very creative! You both must have inherited your creativity from your sweet mom!
ReplyDeleteLove your scribble 'flower'! How cool is it that you & Anita had the same idea! I'm off to check her creation out now!
Oh what fun socks from your talented sis! Your card is gorgeous, Kim! I have Scribbles on my wishlist--moving up now!
