A Couple of Colour Challenges using Studio Calico

I have two projects to share in this post, and both were created for color challenges using kit supplies from Studio Calico. 

First up a card for Colour Me, a gorgeous combination of colors . . .

And here is my card . . .

Now this is not my typical style of card.  For someone reason, Studio Calico's kits always have me stepping outside of my comfort zone.  I created my own background paper with the X's and O's in the colors of the challenge.  I actually used two of my Studio Calico kits . . . Far Far Away and the newest kit, Galileo. Love that little bunny!  

My second card was created for the Colour Q challenge.  Here is there awesome color palette . . .

For this card I went more with the darker blue. 

I used supplies from the Far Far Away kit from Studio Calico.  The yellow is a bit buried in that pineapple, which was stamped on a yellow pattern paper.  

Love that light blue, satin, scallop border. 

Hope you found some time to create this weekend.
