Love's Flowers - Color Throwdown #98

Are you ready for another Color Throwdown? I'm hosting this week and these are the colors I picked, inspired by the Cappella collection from Basic Grey.


I love 'em!! And I love that paper! Here's my card:

My card base is Blush Blossom, then I added a couple of patterned paper elements. Then I added a strip of lace and more vintage seam binding--can you tell I'm loving this stuff, LOL? I just got some new Verve stamps so I thought I'd ink one of them up today. I stamped the sentiment, from Love's Flower, on a piece of patterned paper and cut/embossed it with a Labels Ten Nestabilities die. I popped it up on Pop Dots and added some brown flat backed pearls and a new Prima flower to the ribbon. Everything was sponged with Antique Linen Distress ink and I added some Tattered Roses Distress Ink to the rose, as well. I'm using CPS sketch #172, only flipped.

Remember, you do not have to have the exact colors to play. If you don't, just use the closest you have. So, c'mon over to the Color Throwdown blog and play along with us this week. Please use the link service to post your card and please link directly to your card so we can find it easily. And please include a link in your post to the Color Throwdown. If you upload your card to a public forum, please use the keyword CTD98 so we can see your beauty all in one place. Hope to see you there! Be sure to check out what the other team members have come up with this week! And don't forget we're only two weeks away from our CTD100 celebration--it's gonna be awesome so you won't want to miss it!
