It’s that time of the week again! Whew! This time of the week really rolls around fast, doesn’t it, LOL! Today’s Color Throwdown challenge colors are RAINBOW!
Here’s this week’s sketch. You can find the sketch on the MFT blog and also in the MFT forum on SCS, as well as in the weekly newsletter. The Design Team will be on hand to provide plenty of inspiration to get you started.
I decided to bring out one of my favorite Flopsey sets for this card, Rainfall Flopsey. So, OK, it’s a little colorful and busy, I’ll admit. But it’s happy!!! :) Look at her boots—I want them!
Flopsey is colored with Copic markers and her umbrella and boots were paper pieced. I tied a big ol’ sunny yellow gingham ribbon on with a twine-tied button to hold the sentiment on. I’m SO not over bows :) I added some small rhinestone raindrops to the rainbow and popped Flopsey up on foam dots
Here’s the inside, with more die cuts and another sweet sentiment from the set.
I used these dies on this card: Jumbo Open Scallop Die-namics, Sunshine Die-namics, Flat Bottomed Clouds Die-namics, First Place Award Ribbon Die-namics, and Rainbow Die-namics.
Remember, you do not have to have the exact colors to play the Color Throwdown challenge. 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 CTD151 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!
