Midway Reminder - Color Chart

Hey...Happy Tuesday! It's midway reminder time for our Color Chart Challenge. All you have to do is pick a color and the one opposite and make those your main color palette...easy peasy though it did send shivers through a couple of the Ladybugs lol.


I made a card for my mom...it's a belated Mother's Day card. The US and not the European Mother's Day so I'm not THAT late lol. Mom knows I've had a lot on my plate of late and is very forgiving ;-D





I've chosen yellow-green and red-violet...I think the colors I've used just about squeak into the category lol. I colored Swing Billie with my Copics adding liquid pearl to the center of the flowers and clear Wink Of Stella to Billie's heart. The pp is from my Desert Blooms 8 x 8 pad and the flowers Ribbon Girl :-D




I'd like to enter the following challenges:

ABC Challenges - I {heart} Animals
Artistic Inspirations - Stitching (real or faux)
Paper Playtime - Anything Goes
Make It Monday - Anything Goes
Bearly Mine Challenges - Anything Goes
Lady Anne's Challenges - Anything Goes

GG'ma Judy arrived safely and was thrilled to finally meet Coen. This was the first picture of the two of them together....


and yesterday I was lucky enough to capture his first proper smile....


Doesn't he just melt your heart?? Well, he does mine {love sigh}

We've been lucky enough to have had some gorgeous weather the last 4/5 days. Nicole, Coen, GG'ma Judy, Nic's in-laws and I went to James Heritage Park and walked around the lake grabbing an icecream for the 2nd lap. 

I'm way behind on my work so after dropping the Rocky and Ruby off at Doggy Daycare this morning I'll be depositing The Judy at Nicole's for a day of cuddles and shopping and I'll hopefully tick a few things off my list :-D

Hope you have a fabulicious day

Catch ya later x

EDIT: Coen was weighed this morning...he's now a hefty 9LBS!!!!!
