Chase Your Dreams–CTD #268

CTD268_2013nov13


Hey everyone! It’s Color Throwdown time! Today Tammy has a GORGEOUS color palette for us based on an equally gorgeous inspiration piece.

My card is pretty simple but I think the graphic design really packs a punch :) I started with a Sweet Tooth card stock base, then cut chevrons in the challenge colors using a Photo Corners Die-namics die. I popped them up on foam, then cut out a LLD Insert It – Speech Bubble Frame Die-namics from Black Licorice card stock. I stamped a sentiment from DC Vertical Greetings and stamped it on more Sweet Tooth card stock with Black Licorice ink, adhered the frame to it, and popped it up on more foam. To finish it off, I added some black sequins.

For the inside, I stamped a sentiment from DC Vertical Greetings II in Black Licorice ink
