House of Cards Month One Challenge

This is my first post for the House of Cards Challenge Blog and boy am I excited about this challenge! The idea of the House of Cards challenge is to take one colour combo, sketch or inspiration photo and use it in four different card styles - Cute and Fun, CAS, Classic and Elegant and Shabby and Vintage, with each design team showcasing their cards one week at a time. The week it is the Cute and Fun design team's turn to share their creations and that means me!!!

This month we will be working with a fun and fresh colour palette.  Please choose at least 3 of these colours to create with!
Here's the colour palette...
