ColourQ 315, CASology 171, & ColourMe 96

Sharing a few cards this rainy afternoon in NJ. My first card was inspired by THIS fabulous card created by Joyce for this week's ColourQ challenge. I absolutely love this mix of bold colors. It was genius the way Joyce created such a beautiful mosaic. The color is not overpowering with the white space and vellum muting it. I varied it a little by using the PTI waves cover plate. I originally heat embossed my sentiment in the center of the skewed vellum but I had trouble adhering the vellum to the card panel so decided to stick with the bold black sentiment banner to ground all the movement from the colorful waves. 




Send card is for this week's Colour Me....Monochromatic challenge which is to used a mix of neutrals. I've been itching to use the new PTI Cup of Cheer set along with the MFT Clearly Sentimental about Coffee sentiment set so these challenge colors came at the perfect time.  I was inspired by a card from Nichole Heady that was in the November PTI Newsletter. 



Last card uses a bicycle from an old Cat's Meow set in my stash for the CASology:Vehicle challenge. 
Also linking to the current Seize The Birthday:Anything Goes challenge


I stamped the girls' bicycle on a Lil Inkers Stitched Circle diecut. The grounded the bicycle on a strip of striped patented paper which I also cut with the Stitched Circle die so it would blend in with the rest of the circle. Parts of the bicycle are colored in with Copics. 




I'm working on a couple more cards and hope to post them tomorrow. Kids are off from school for a couple days so I'm hoping to find a smidge of free time. Thanks for stopping by!
