ColourQ Challenge #109

Hello!  OK, honestly, I looked at the colors this week and thought, "No way am I going to make a card this week.  I cannot think of how those would pull together in a card!"  But I gave it a little thought and came up with not only one card, but two.

Here is the (initially scary) color pallette:

 I needed to make a male birthday card, so I was pleased that these colors would work well for that.  So I used my Cricut and a super cute stamp set I just picked up last week from Studio G and made this cupcake card:
We had a beautiful Halloween with highs in the 60's.  But yesterday we got snow!  This is my front lawn yesterday:

Hooray!  I LOVE snow!! :)  SO, I decided as I was making the cupcake card, that these colors would make a GREAT snowman card!  I used the Telescoping Card tutorial at SplitCoast Stampers and here is my snowman:

 Then he unfolds to this:

I had fun making him!!

After some contemplation, I decided to enter the snowman card in ColourQ, if I can only choose one.  

Thanks for checking out my blog!!  I hope you have a creative day!  And don't forget to leave your comments! :)

  4. Hi Heather! I'm wondering if you live in CO like me! We had the same weather outside of Denver this week! I really love your snowman, he is so cute! I love how he looks like he's melted when he's folded up! Too cute! As well as that FUN big cupcake! Super fun, HAPPY shaped cards, love them both! Thanks for playing at colourQ this week :)

  6. Thanks Ladies!! You are all so sweet! Noelle, I don't live in CO. I am in UT. We just got another big storm today! We wanted to drive up the canyon today but they wouldn't let us because we didn't have chains. Bummer. But I love the snow!
