ColourQ #333....Happy Birthday




If you are looking for my CASology post, please click here.

Happy Tuesday and welcome to a new challenge at ColourQ.

St. Patrick's Day is almost here, and we have a wonderful collection of greens for you to craft with this week.  Great dress, right?



I dug through my stash of paint chips and found one with pretty much exactly all of the greens in this week's color inspiration.



I cut a strip out of the paint chip to create my left border, and then die cut some leaves out of the middle section of the paint chip.



Please head on over to the ColourQ challenge blog to see more inspiration from the design team. I hope you will join in the fun and play along this week.

I am also entering this card at Simon Says Wednesday A Bit O' Green challenge.



Thanks for Visiting

    Great card Joyce and I love the fact that you used paint chips! We don't get them here in the UK any more - at least, I haven't seen them in a long time - have a lovely day! Hazel xx

    You know, I thought that vertical layer looked a lot like paint chips! What a fabulous idea to use that on your card! I love the die cut leaves (so graphic) and the textured background is FABULOUS!
