colourQ challenge #252...

Hello! Can you believe summer is almost gone? Alex starts next Wednesday! UGH! Well, I hope you're having a blast! We have new colors for you today, as ChRiStMaS in July! (Anyone else's kids asking "when it's gonna be Christmas?")

Our palette this week is inspired by these adorable Ginger Felt Christmas Ornaments by GingerSweetCrafts on Etsy.

 From our holly, jolly Royal Court...

ENTRY DEADLINE is MONDAY, August 4th at 12 midnight CST, to be considered for colourQueen! You must be linked before the deadline to be in the running for colourQueen, but if you miss it, you are welcome to leave your link in the comments!

PLEASE use the palette provided for your project! 

You'll notice that a few of our designers use colors similar to the SU! colors listed in the palettes - just try to keep it close!

Please display our palette badge, but at the VERY least, you MUST put a link in your post back to this challenge~ Thank you!

Using InLinkz, link to the actual post/gallery page your project is in, and select the thumbnail image of your project. Any mis-linked entries are subject to deletion, but I'll try to let you know if there's a problem!

*** Just so you know, InLinkz is not fool-proof, some of you may not be able to post the thumbnail of your card... if not, link your profile picture. But if you CAN post the thumbnail of your card, please do! If I have time I will go back & 'fix' the Inlinkz for those of you who cannot get your project thumbnail to post, oky-doky? If I do "fix" it for you, your thumbnail may be moved to a different position on the entry list ***

Hope you get to play along this week!!!

Hey there ~ ready for some fun new colors? Thanks so much to everyone who played last week! I can't wait to see what you do with these colors!

Sadly, we are saying goodbye to Anita today! Anita is such a brilliant scrapper, and a wonderful lady, I am really going to miss her! I know what goes into a layout, and your contributions to the challenge have been amazing! Thank you for your gorgeous creations! 

Our palette today was inspired by this fabulous Gold & Pink Tribal Cuff Bracelet from World Market! How fun is that?!? Here's my sample... (oh yes ~ I threw in some gold, and yes - you can, too!)

Hello! Thanks so much for stopping by, we have a fun palette to share with you, since it's colourQ's 250th challenge!!! How did that happen??? I am so thankful that so many of you talented ladies play along with us each week, it's always educational and inspirational! And fun!

 Use any or all of the additional spot colors, along with black and white ~ your choice! Our palette today is based on this gorgeous (& FUN) Trina Turk Pop Wave Short Tank Swim Cover Up Dress at Bloomingdales. Here's my sample...

I am so sad today to announce that this is Tracey's last week in the Royal Court.... for over 2 years she has created the most ingenious and gorgeously crafted cards to share with us all! I am so going to miss her, but I am so grateful to her for sharing her amazing talents with us! THANK YOU TRACEY, from the bottom of my heart!

And from our Royal Court, all of this AMAZING inspiration...
