colourQ challenge #181...

Happy Tuesday! We've been running around liek crazy today, with more running around to come, so I 'just' have time to get this post up! I'll have to owe you the winners before next week - I'm sorry! Today is the kids' first soccer game - it's SO HARD finding size 3T soccer shorts, socks, etc.... I've been looking for weeks! But we're finally ready!

Thanks SO MUCH to all the talented ladies who played along last week - you gals rock!!!

Our colors today were inspired by this awesome felt bracelet by Poor Robin... but it seems that it sold! OOPS! That's what happens sometimes when I pick palettes early - the items are gone before the challenge!

Here's my sample....

And from our incredibly amazing DT....

Time to get crafty!!!

ENTRY DEADLINE is MONDAY, March 25th at 12 midnight CST, to be considered for colourQueen! If you miss the deadline but still want to link up, InLinkz will re-open the next day, so you can play with any of the previous colors anytime. You must be linked before the deadline to be in the running for colourQueen, though!

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!!!

colourQ challenge #178...

Hello there - ready for some new colors?!? Hopefully some of you ready to get inky went around and found the colors at one of the Royal Court blogs...  Thanks so much to all who played with us last week, we're starting the voting and the gallery is just stunning!

Our colors today were inspired by this Trina Turk Blue Peacock Bath Curtain at Macy's! These colors are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!

Here's my sample...

colourQ challenge #147...

Good morning! Thank you all so much for your gorgeous entries last week - they ROCK! Running a bit late this morning, so the winners will be up shortly. You might have seen on my blog, my hubby tore his calf muscle last week, so he's been couch-ridden. Getting EVERYTHING done is hard work! Sorry I'm running so behind! 

We have some sad news today - this is Suzanne's last post! She's been making gorgeous cards here at the "Q" for a year and a half now ~ whew, where does the time go? She is so talented and so sweet, I am really going to miss her! Please stop by her blog and wish her well!

We also have some happy news, too~ Tracey McNeely is starting today and debuting her first card as a Royal Court member. She has been a faithful participant for ages! She is also amazingly talented and a very sweet soul, and I am so thrilled to have her! Please stop by and welcome her to the team!

Our colors today were inspired by this Klippan Retro Fish Tea Towel over at Huset. These colors just screamed "pick me, pick me!!!" So I did.

Here's my sample...

And from our ever~amazingly~creative Royal Court...
