Time to Celebrate–CTD #312

CTD312_2014oct1


Hey, everyone, it’s time for another Color Throwdown Challenge! This week Miss Broni has an awesome color palette for us, based on a gorgeous inspiration piece—I LOVED creating with this color palette!!

This card started with a Kraft Card Stock base, I added a panel of Grout Gray Card Stock stamped with Grout Gray Ink and Wood Plank Background, then a strip of glitter paper. Next up is a panel of Orange Fizz Card Stock stamped with Steel Gray Ink and Happy Birthday Background, popped up on foam. I added a clock, made with MPD Time Pieces Die-namics and MPD Timeless stamp set using Black Licorice Card Stock, Sweet Tooth Card Stock, and Steel Gray Ink, also popped up on foam. The sentiment was both stamped and die cut from MPD Timeless and Celebratory Greetings Die-namics, on a strip of Grout Gray Card Stock. I added a gear, cut from MPD Time Pieces Die-namics and Black Licorice Card Stock, some hemp cord, and enamel dots to finish it off.
