Freshly Made Sketches 167 Meets ColourQ 273

Today I’m playing along with two challenges – Freshly Made Sketches 167 and ColourQ 273 – with a card created using Reverse Confetti supplies. It’s fun creating with some fresh colors and themes. I love Christmas cards, and I’ll miss making them, but I’m ready for some bright color combinations!

Rather than stamp the flamingo, I simply die cut its body and wing (out of Calypso Coral cardstock), stamping the beak and eye on the body. I stamped the circle and rectangle with the flamingo legs and lined them up.

ColourQ Challenge 261

I’m playing along with this week’s ColourQ Challenge. Another wonderful color combination for the fall!

I used a Lawn Fawn notecard  measuring 3 1/2 x 4 7/8 for the card base. The leaves were adhered with dimensional foam to circles which were cut with the MFT Peek-a-Boo die. My original design was going to use the frame from that die, but lining up the three circles seemed too forced and rigid.

ColourQ Challenge #260

Today I’m sharing a card created for colourQ challenge #260.

This is such a delightful color combination for the fall. I grew up in Denver; the Broncos football team colors are orange and blue. I had at least one school outfit that was pumpkin and navy!

ColourQ260The branches, from a Taylored Expressions die set, were cut from a woodgrain textured cardstock. I double cut the birds, (from the same TE set), adhered them together and put them onto the branches with dimensional adhesive. The navy background was cut with a Lil’ Inker stitched rectangle die. The sentiment, from a Taylored Expressions stamp set, was heat embossed.
