The Color Hues Challenge #1~Yellow/Green...Have a Wonderful Day Kites

Hello,

I'm absolutely giddy with delight to welcome you to the launch of The Colour Hues Challenge #1, where our lovely Nancy has selected hues of Yellow and Green as inspiration! 


Before I share my card, I'll echo Nancy's message: thank you for your enthusiastic, sweet comments in response to the new challenge! So appreciated! And to my 'new' teammates: I'm thrilled and honoured to be designing alongside you!

Okay...let's roll!

My love for slimline cards continues, and for this opening challenge, I paired it with another love: Concord & 9th products! I figured out how to use their recent Kite Strings turnabout stamp on a slimline panel (a bit tricky, but love the result...and the possibilities with other turnabouts!) and added a die cut kite from the bundle. A variety of yellow/green inks and papers and ta dahhhh...a card that I hope will make someone's day wonderful!


Please visit the rest of the team; you'll be sooooo impressed by their creativity:


Now: YOUR TURN! Looking forward to seeing your hues of Yellow and Green in the gallery!

The challenge is open until 9:00 AM (EST) Sept. 14th and the winners will be posted an hour before our next challenge goes live.


Thank you for dropping by!

This is fantastic! I just ordered my first turn-about stamp and am glad to know it can be used for a slimline card as well. What a happy, cheerful card! So glad to be joining you on this new adventure.

Carol your slimline is divine! I love the turnabout and might have to get it now, thank you! xo

And still I puzzle over how you are engineering turnabouts for slimline cards! The results on this card are spectacular! Love this card.

I just love slimline cards, and yours is perfection! What beautiful colors and patterns! Can't go wrong with polka dots and kites. I'm so happy to be sharing this adventure with you!

Slimline cards are definitely of the moment Carol, yours looks fab. The background looks like it was a DP, so crisp and clear.
It's great to be on another DT with you. :)

Slimlines and turnabouts- fabulous! Will you share how you figured out how to engineer this? Pretty please?

Jeanne said...

Oh this card is just delightful and cheery, Carol. How fun that you uses a turnabout for a slimline. Do tell! How'd you do that?! Well, however you do it, it looks fantastic! Thanks so much for sharing. :) Hugs!

This looks fabulous, Carol. Are you sharing the secret about turnabouts and slimline cards?

Love that you used a turnabout on a slimline panel Carol (and am still puzzling over how!) The yellow and green is gorgeous and the kite motif is uplifting... sorry about the pun, couldn't resist! Vicky x
