I started playing with this week's ColourQ colors, and found them to be such fun. I made a trio of birthday cards with these colors. As I am on a bit of a casing-kick, each of my cards was inspired by another talented crafter.
This first card was inspired by one of Maile's cards during this month's release festivities.

I loved the layout of Deanna's card this week, and decided to use that for this next card.

Finally, I spotted a sweet owl card the other day at Wading in Creativity, and decided to make a similar card using Wise Owl.
