colourQ 338!

I almost didn't make it this week for my colourQ card!  There's a new palette up but I took a little impromptu trip and didn't have time to make my card when I usually do.  Luckily, I'm off work on vacation this week so I managed to squeeze in a card this morning in between cleaning and unclogging drains!



I started out following the sketch at As You See It, but I guess I wasn't paying very good attention to the layout because I see now that I missed some stuff and got some stuff in the wrong place!  What a mess I am today!


Hopefully the rest of the week will be a bit better for me.  The weather is a little iffy today so it's a good day to stay in and do some cleaning and crafting!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you in the colourQ gallery this week!

LOVE this Jen! I love that the bottom part is patterned and the top is plain and that black in between just makes everything pop! I also love that gold die cut sentiment! Have a very lovely evening! Hazel xx

Cleaning on your week off Jen? Hope you're planning on doing something nicer than unclogging drains! Your card is freaking fabulous - love the gold die cut with that coral...such a pretty combo this week!

Cleaning and unclogging drains vs card-making. Hmmm, tough choice :) Your card is gorgeous as always and the chevron strip is such a modern look.
