colourQ challenge #289...

Hello and HAPPY TUESDAY! Only 4 more weeks of school - I can't wait! I thought the fall was busy - spring is practically hopping! Thank you all so much for joining us last week!

Our inspiration today is this sweet Birds on Green Jewelry Box from UncommonGoods. It is so neat!

I am sad to say that this is Silke's last week with us! She's got her hands full these days, (and I'm sure we can all sympathize with trying to keep up with life's demands) and is stepping down for a while. Hopefully she'll be able to come back to the Royal Court in the future... she is just the sweetest, most talented lady! 

I thank you Silke, so much, for your marvelously inspiring work here! Like this beauty...

And here's some fabulous inspiration from the rest of the Royal Court...

ENTRY DEADLINE is MONDAY, May 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!!!

colourQ challenge #235...

Good morning!!! Ready for some FUN new colors?!? I'm taking you back to the tropics with this palette, doesn't it just make you feel warm? Thank you all so much for playing along with us last week - your entries were stellar!

Our inspiration this week came from this awesome Misaki Floral Quilt from World Market. It makes me want to totally repaint and redecorate my bedroom! Here's my sample...

And from our spectacularly amazing Royal Court...

colourQ challenge #226...

I'm finally back! We have a LOT of sleet here... close to my folks' they've lost power & my interenet is been on the blink? I feel for those of you who have been living with this "winter vortex"! First I lost Facebook and then the rest of my internet went out for a bit right after the winner's post went up.

Our colors today are inspired by this scrumptious Valentine's Day Embroidery Hoop Art by Ruth over at Living Well Spending Less. Doesn't it make you want to try your hand at embroidery??? Well, I think I will! Here's my sample...

And from our AMAZING Royal Court....
