Birthday Wishes - CTD #111

[If you're looking for my MFT VIP Blog Hop post, please scroll down to the next post. Thanks!]

Time for another Color Throwdown! Today Broni chose these colors to challenge us:


And these colors definitely were a challenge for me! Hmmm, I'm saying that a lot lately, LOL!

Luckily I found some Webster's Pages patterned paper in my stash that would work, and I'm loosely using Mojo Monday #157 for my layout. I did some stitching and distressing on the patterned paper layer, stamped a sentiment from Verve's Wishful Elegance set, cut/embossed it with a Labels Four Nestabilities die, and added some flat backed pearls. I wound some twine around on top of the lace and lastly added a Prima flower that I sponged with River Rock and Melon Mambo ink.

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 CTD111 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!!!
