Happiness Always–CTD #193

Welcome to this week’s Color Throwdown Challenge! This week the amazing Wanda is our host and she has picked a fabulous color combo, based on her inspiration piece.

I don’t have any Marvelous Magenta card stock, so I went with some patterned paper that had all the other colors plus a bright pink. I think that works. My layout is very simple, using MFTWSC #69, and pretty self-explanatory, I’m thinkin’.

My tree was made with my Die-namics Teardrop Tree die, popped up on some foam dots. I added the sentiment, from  MFT’s Happy Thoughts on a Die-namics First Place Award Ribbon double-ended flag, topped with a Pink Sorbet baker’s twine tied button. Lots of stitching finished it off.

Here’s the inside, with another sentiment from the set:

Here are the Die-namics dies I used on this card:

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 CTD193 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.
