Hello, Sunshine–CTD #383

CTD383_2016mar9

Hello, all, it’s time for another Color Throwdown Challenge! This week Miss Broni has a bright and cheerful palette for us to work with.

Well, this bright and cheerful paletted said TROPICAL to me so that’s what I went with. I got out BB Polynesian Paradise, stamped the images with Black Licorice hybrid ink on BB Polynesian Paradise Die-namics cut from X-Press It Blending card and colored them with Copic markers. Then, on a Sweet Tooth card stock base, I added another layer of Swee Tooth card stock with a circle cut from it using Inside & Out Stitched Circle STAX Die-namics, spread some molding paste on throught Wonky Chevron Stencil, and popped it up on the base after it dried. Before I popped it up, though, I added a circle of Ranger Watercolor paper on which I did a watercolor wash with Peerless Watercolors.

I added a strip of Dots & Stripes Neutral Paper Pack cut with Blueprints 13 Die-namics, and the sentiment, stamped with Versamark on Black Licorice card stock cut with Blueprints 20 Die-namics, heat embossed with white detail embossing powder, and also popped up on foam. I then added the colored images and was done!

And that’s it from me! Remember, you do not have to have the exact colors to play the
