Finally it is election day here in the US. Hopefully everyone's Facebook feed can return to normal! It's also time for a new palette from your friends at colourQ. The colors may say fall to you, but I chose to use flowers.
Everything old is new again. I found some old SU specialty paper with a bunch of white on white designs so I used a piece of that as my background layer, then I used my scallop Nesties to create the circular layers. It's been a dog's age since I used a scallop circle!
The layout that inspired those circles is from Just Add Ink and I'm also joining the flower challenge at CAS on Sunday.
Well that's it for me. I'm typing this in the morning quickly just before I head off to work. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you can join us at colourQ this week!

Perfect use of these colors, Jen! And how much fun is it to pull out those old supplies and make them work so well with more modern designs! LOVE those leaves and flowers. The pretty blue works well with the orange and green, and that sketch lent itself perfectly to your card. Such a pretty card! Bev
