Happy Little Stampers CASE and ColourQ #335

I would not miss the opportunity to CASE my friend, Joyce - and OH what a gorgeous number she's given us to work with:


So here is where the Happy Little Stampers took me:



Okay, you know how I feel about mixing challenges together?  I could not resist the chance to play cards with Tracey Pond when she Facebook-challenged Kristie Goulet and I to play at ColourQ with this combination:


 
I've come as close as I could with the cQc #335 colors, Tracey!!  Now where is YOUR card?
 
Have a wonderful weekend, my friends!

    Absolutely stunning card, Michele. Love how you used the ColourQ colors, and your design is brilliant. Love the wonky stitched oval and how some of your leaves are tucked under and laid over your die cut panel. And the subtle splatter--you are a brave one to try to splatter. Thanks so much for playing along at Happy Little Stampers CASE the Designer and ColourQ this week.

    Way to merge the two challenges, Michele. I find color challenges difficult but you managed to get them all in beautifully.
