Banana Lake House...

Hello!

It's time for another ColourQ challenge and this week's combination is so pretty...

I dug through my paper stash and found the Lake House collection by Kaisercraft that had three out of the four colours in it so I went with that and added some old Barely Banana card from my retired cardstock collection...

I used the Viva la Verve sketch from this week for my layout...

I added some Early Espresso satin ribbon as well as the die-cut banner and sentiment panel (stamped with a retired Verve stamp and Early Espresso ink).

Make sure you check out the fabulous creations from the rest of the design team this week!

Indescribable Gift of Faith...

Hi there!

Time for a much-needed dose of creativity amongst my week of car breakdown issues lol! This week's ColourQ combination is gorgeous...

I knew exactly what I wanted to do for this one as I'd already seen a sketch I wanted to use and I had been playing with the Indescribable Gift floral stamp over the weekend and really wanted to do some watercolouring with it for this card...

I used this week's Case this Sketch as well as the Paper Players CAS watercolour challenge...

The flower was stamped on watercolour card then coloured with inkpads and an aquapainter. I stamped and coloured an extra couple of layers so I could add a bit of dimension to the image, which you can see on the close up...

I also added some Dazzling Details glitter glue for a bit of sparkle. The sentiment is from Paper Smooches, embossed with black EP on Crumb Cake card.

Black & White Sympathy...

Hiya!

This week's ColourQ challenge has lots of possibilities...

I chose some Kaisercraft papers that had a pretty black & white print, and added a couple of die-cut butterfly collectables from the same collection for a splash of colour...

I used the Viva la Verve sketch from this week, but flipped it (for some reason it worked better in my head that way lol!)...

Bicycle Boy's Birthday...

Hiya!

It's time for another fun ColourQ challenge and this week we've got some bright colours to play with...

I had a request from my sister to make a boy's birthday card featuring a bicycle so I thought these colours would work for that. I pulled out one of SU's hostess sets called Life's Adventure and some dsp from the Spring/Summer catty and created this...

I used Cajun Craze instead of Dusty Durango cos we've never had that colour in the UK! The bike was coloured with Blendabilities and the sun (from Kinda Eclectic) was stamped a couple of times with Hello Honey ink.

I used the Sweet Sunday Sketch for my layout...
