Thank you ColourQ

It must be beginner's luck! My thanks go to ColourQ and their design team for a challenge I just completed for the first time. My graduation card (see prior post) was selected for Colour Courtier, with this badge. colourQ I'm honored and hope to play again soon! Thanks for stopping by, Melissa

colourQ no. 90 challenge

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the colourQ e-mail and the color combination I've been in love with for about six months now! This is my first colourQ challenge. I'm sharing three cards (although the first one is my official submission) because I just made this graduation card for Athena but also used nearly the same color combination for my twins' 4th birthday invitations and thank you cards.
