Would you believe Arielle Gordon has posted a Colour Q Challenge every week for 100 weeks?! I've participated as often as I could, but I know I've missed out on several that really caught my eye...such as this one from week #76. I *love* this bright and happy color combination so created this *happy* card to share with all of you. I hope you like it!
To celebrate the 100th Colour Q Challenge, they have teamed up with the Clean and Simple Sketch Challenge using the Fall to Layout #155 shown below. Double the pleasure...Double the FUN! : )
My card is the standard 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" using old olive as the base. I've layered on early espresso and daffodil delight along with a piece of "kiwi kiss" designer paper by K & Company. {Designer Tim Coffey Mat Pad}. I've distressed the edges a bit with Versafine Vintage Sepia, stitched the layers together with my Janome Sew Mini, and added the brown twill ribbon, bakers twine and buttons.
The sweet *happy* sentiment is a M's stamp from their dollar bin. I can never pass those up! ;)

Since we're celebrating the 100th Colour Q Challenge, I can't resist sharing a couple of my cards that were chosen in the past. I was "crowned" Colour Q Queen way back in week #14. Here is my card for that challenge and my original post.
And one of my cards was selected again in Week 79!
Seriously?!

I'm happy you stopped by!
