colorQ Challenge #133

I decided to try a sunset for this weeks colorQ Challenge. This is normally not the type of card I make but it was fun and easy to create this peaceful sunset.

Thanks for stopping by!

CCMC-197 Color Challenge

Happy Saturday everyone! It is a rainy day here in Indiana...BUT that means it is a perfect day to spend in my "stamping space." I have really caught the bug for joining some challenges. I am trying to broaden my creative palette. Here is another card I have created for a challenge at Create with Connie and Mary. The colors chosen were Concord Crush, Certainly Celery,and Marina Mist.

I decided to use Circle Circus, a favorite stamp set of mine! I am a little worried about this retiring, so I am using it as much as I can. I will miss the wonderful 2010-2012 In Colors when they retire May31, but I am so excited to see what Stampin' Up has for us for 2012-2014. Tomorrow the retiring stamp sets will be announced so check back tomorrow to see which you have to buy before they are gone forever!

Thanks for stopping!
