So I saw this week's ColourQ colors and was inspired, but after playing with various cards and taking apart a card and redoing a card, I've decided that while I really like this color combination, I actually found it really difficult to come up with a card I liked. I'm not sure any of these work... but moving on. The coffee card works for this week's Make It Monday challenge and as you can see I took the dies and put them to work on the second card. The third card is for the wedding I'm going to this afternoon, I CASEd myself, click here to see the card that I was inspired by. I've got a tiny bit of grey in the center of the flowers, but I know that I didn't stick to the ColourQ colors all that well.

Love the colors that inspired you to make all 3! I see we were thinking the same with our coffee mugs! Gotta love those polka dots!
I think all three of these are GREAT takes on this color combo, Erin!! The first one is super cute---I'm always up for a hot mug of tea!! And I LOVE how you outlined the flowers with touches of color in the third card---AWESOME design!!!
such a wonderful bunch of cards!!!! Love the colors!
I think these all turned out fabulous! LOVE the coloring on the last one- and the MIM technique looks GREAT with this layout- and I also love that you put the dies to work immediately!!! I'd say you rocked these colors!!!
Oh my, three cards! I went from ooohhh to aaahhh. I just love how you used those colours on three very different cards, Erin! All three are fabulous and my favourite is the first one. I love that little ribbon tab!
I think these 3 cards are fabulous Erin! You really did an awesome job with these colors! :)

Cute cards, Erin! You must be tired because I think your cards are fabulous! Thanks for joining us at the ColourQ this week.
I think they are all sweet! And look how different they all are, even using the same color combo! Great way to highlight these tones! Thanks for playing with the CQC this week!
Great cards, good job on your aperture.
