Best Wishes–CTD #270

CTD270_2013nov27


Hi, all, it’s time for the Color Throwdown! This week’s colors were chosen by Wanda and I just LOVE the elegant inspiration piece she used, don’t you?

I was in need of a wedding card and I thought these colors were perfect for it so I got to work. I started with a Sweet Tooth card stock base, then added a Dizzy Doily Duo Die-namics doily cut from Kraft card stock. Then I made a Hybrid Camellia Flower Die-namics posy, accompanied by some Layered Leaves Die-namics and popped it up on the doily.

I cut a Banner Greetings Die-namics from Sweet Tooth card stock and stamped a sentiment from Banner Greetings with Black Licorice ink and popped it up as well. Since I had no silver on the card at this point, I added some silver beads and some pearls for good measure :)

For the inside, I stamped a sentiment from Happy Thoughts—perfect for a wedding card, I think.
