ColourQ #129

Good Tuesday morning to you!
It's time for me to share a pretty "cool" ColourQ colour combo with you today.
I just love the hues in this picture!

I, again, went super super simple with this challenge.
I decided to break out my PTI alphabet dies for the first time.


My original plan did not include the letters hanging from a line, but I found that I didn't have that 3rd hue of blue in my felt collection. I did however, have a similar colour in my  floss collection. So I decided to braid it and hang the letters from it. I also decided the whole thing needed a little bit of texture, so I embossed it with my PTI canvas embossing plate.

As always, Arielle and the ColourQ Royal Court have some amazing samples to share with you. So head on over to the ColourQ blog to check them out.
Then go get your ink on, and play along with us.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, have a great day!!

  12. Hello,
    I love your cards. The first card I saw of your was the ones with all the buttons strung on it; it pulled me to your blog : )

    Can you tell me what white paper you used for the color 129 challenge. It is white and has a lovely texture. I don't know if the texture is from the paper or is an embossing folder. I love it and have seen it on other cards.

    luv your work!

    1. Nancy,
      thank you so much for your kind words!

      The paper is actually textured using an embossing plate.
      This one is by Papertrey Ink, and it's the linen plate. Here is a link to it on their website.
