cQc140: Cheers!

colourQ is one of my favorite challenge blogs because for me it is just that, a challenge!   It always inspires me to try to use more than a couple of colors and a more clean-and-simple approach.  This week's challenge has some of my favorite colors, but I would never have thought to put them together!  
Forgive the bad picture; I guess photography at 7am is not my forte.   :)    I got a new box of goodies from Stampin' Up! last night and was so excited to use my new Happy Hour set!   I don't like alcohol, but I love these fun glasses with all their accessories.  As a bonus, there are great sentiments to go along with them!    Thanks to my great customers, I was able to earn this set for free and I'm very thankful as the baby budget makes the stamping budget almost non-existent.   Totally worth the trade-off of course.  :)

Stamps:  Happy Hour
Ink:  Island Indigo, Real Red, Tempting Turquoise, Lucky Limeade
Paper:  Island Indigo, Real Red, Whisper White
Tools/Accessories:   Simply Scored, Basic Rhinestones, Stamp-a-ma-jig

Love your card. I don't drink either (raised in a Salvation Army house), but these solid images are fun - especially in these colours and with the little cut out accessories!
