Starring... CTD #110

The lovely LeAnne chose the colors for this week's Color Throwdown Challenge and they WERE a challenge for me.


This card is also for this week's MFT Wednesday Stamp Club, which is to use stars in your project--get the deets here. Since these colors "challenged" me, I decided to use a lot of white and use the colors as accents. I think everything should be fairly simple to figure out, but I will have to say how happy I'm that I tried SU! Heat and Stick powder for my glitter--I've always had trouble getting it to stick, no matter what kind of glue I tried, but this stuff WORKS! I cut the star with a Nestablilities die, covered it with Versamark, applied the powder, melted it, sprinkled on some Glitzy Glitter and hit it with the heat tool again to set it. Nice :) I also embossed the Framed Greetings border and the sentiment, from Clearly Sentimental About Emerson, with silver embossing powder before cutting it out with the Framed Greetings Die-namics die. Not exactly Basic Gray, but close enough ;-)

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 CTD110 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!!!
