cqc #71 yeah for PTI

Hi there,

are you already tired of seing PTI cards here on my blog? Well, sorry! BUt I have another PTI card for you today :)

Arielle has chosen this gorgeous colors for this week's colourQ challenge and after trying and playing with my stamps and working..... this is what came out. I love this subtle colors all in one place and my #1 favorite "tool" when it comes to work with lots of colors is making my own patterned paper. The Guide Line series from PTI is just perfect for doing this.

You need to play with us this week - I want to see what you will come up with!

Hugs Tanja

cqc #70 - Stars

Hi there,

another Tuesday and another colourQ-day! Go and check out Arielle's colors for today - to die for!!!!!

I chose this sketch from the clean-and-simple blog (LOVE all the cas ideas!!!) and went ahead with this soft combo *happy sigh*

The star is from an Elzybell bell that sat in one of the boxes for ever before I finally broke in it today :). And the sentiment is from the same set called "Stardust and Moonbeams". (guess what: no PTI on my card today ;) )

Thank you for stopping by today - have a great rest of the week

cqc#69 - bookmark card

Hi there,

how is everybody doing? It's time for another colorQ challenge! And what do you think about this week's colors? I didn't know what to do with the cajun crazy...... hm! And I made a card and sent it to a friend without taking a picture - BUMMER! Well, this is my second choice and definately not my best. But a friend of mine is a bookworm and she loves color combos like this one ....

Here is the inside with the attached bookmark - clean and simple - just the way she is :)

Have a wonderful day my friends and thank you for stopping by today

Hugs Tanja

P.S. - just wanna let you know that I have a ton of cards to show you but I'm working on 3 envelope albums for my sweet hubby who will leave for his deployment in a while. So it will take some time to get pictures taken from the cards and the albums to show you what I was working on lately. So please bear with me and stay tuned.

cqc#68 - poppies

Oh boy,

we had a rough week here at the Hartmann Ranch! I was home sick and so was oldest boy. The youngest one seemed to have more energy than ever and my hubby was preparing for a 3-week-training in Poland ***phew***. But now we are doing better. I still have the feeling that I could go to bed at 7 pm :) but I really need to spend more time with my goodies and camera and blog and so on ... , right?

Back to today's colorQ-challenge. I LOVE th colors Arielle chose for this week. When I saw the inspiration photo I knew that I wanted to play with this poppy stamp set from ThereSheGoes. So I grabbed my Copics and went ahead. I really like the result but I still need to practice a lot more. The cardbase was dry embossed with one of my PTI Impressions Plate (forgot to write down the name - sorry). Everthing else is pretty self-explaining.

Thank you for stopping by today and bearing with me
