Love Comforts Like Sunshine


Hello there...it has been way too long since I've played along with a ColourQ Challenge but I'm back on track today!  I love the color combo.  I started off by making a non-Christmas card (needed a bit of a break from all the Christmas cards).  This will card be one in a set of six I'm making for a women's leadership group that I've been participating in over the last few months.  I thought it would be great to make a set of card for the six other women participating with me.  (I'll share the others over the next week or so...).   

And then...I went back to the regularly scheduled programming and the Verve snowflakes that I am very clearly love given the variety of cards I've made with them.  I quickly made about ten of this design.  I am almost there with my Christmas cards!!

Hope you have a fabulous Wednesday...I'll be traveling to and from Chicago today (flying this time instead of driving like two weeks ago)...so I'm hoping for easy travel and lots of sunshine despite the cool winter weather!

great minds think alike! I had just posted my colourq card when your post arrived in my inbox! I adore these snowflakes you have been using the last few days and they look great in these colours-lovely clean and fresh-just like snow!!

My daughter just asked if these were my cards - 'they're kind of your style, mom!' - and she's right! Love the colour combination and how you made a spring and winter card out of the same colours!

Both cards are so sweet, Lynn, love the different colored snowflakes! Thanks for sharing your cards with us this week at the colourQ.

Love that you made a none card using these colors that wasn't Christmas. I'm with you on these snowflakes..they are great! I'm thinking I need to add them to my collection:) Have a safe trip.

Maureen said...

oh, those colours are amazing together! Love how you showed a regular and Christmas card :) Have to laugh...I made 6 of the same card last night, but it took me almost 2 hours! And I thought I was keeping it simple...I need to rethink my next design ;)

Nice to see some flowers in blog land and what a great use of the colours too! Great first card. Of course I'm once again swooning at the snowflakes! Great Christmas card!! Saw a lot of your snowflake cards on the Pinterest Verve customer creation board yesterday :)

Both of these look amazing with the challenge colors, Lynn. I adore the way you've framed the sentiment on the first one, and the scattered falling snowflakes on the second are so peaceful. Beautiful stamping, as always!
