ColourQ Challenge #99 and Exciting News!


(click photo to go to this week's challenge)

I'm so excited to tell you that Arielle has invited me to be a part of her ColourQ Challenge Design Team!  Each week, on Tuesday, Arielle posts a new inspiration photo and pulls colors from it for the challenge.  I have loved participating in her challenges and I am so thrilled to be able to be a part of the design team!
I hope you'll join us!! 

 Daydreamer and Turning A New Leaf stamped together in these colors make a pattern that I just loved.  I don't think I would have chosen this color palette on my own, but really love the result. 
That's why I love challenges!
Have A Great Day!!


Cardstock: PTI Harvest Gold, Summer Sunrise,White
Stamps: PTI Daydreamer, Botanical Silhouettes, Turning A New Leaf
