Season’s Greetings–Color Throwdown Challenge #516

Hello and welcome to a new Color Throwdown Challenge! This week Lisa is our hostess and she has a fun combo for us based on her super fun inspiration piece.




Well, yes, I did use these Delightful Deer Die-namics AGAIN, LOL! I really do love them and they just worked with these colors perfectly. I stenciled my background with Drifts & Hills Stencil and Mermaid Lagoon Distress Ink on a Sweet Tooth card stock base then stamped the bare trees from Modern Trees Stamp Set with Hot Fudge dye ink. The sentiment is from Trio of Trees Stamp Set and was stamped with Black Licorice dye ink. Then I added a Single Stitch Line Tag-Corner Frame Die-namics cut from Black Licorice card stock and popped up on foam tape



The deer were cut from Primitive White card stock and sponged with Rusty Hinge Distress Ink then I added some white dots on the fawn with Copic Opaque White. The tail accent was also cut from Primitive White card stock, then the deer were popped up on foam tape for the finish.

And that’s it from me! 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 CTD516 so we can see your beauty all in one place, and use #ctd516 and #colorthrowdown on social media. Hope to see you there! Be sure to check out what the other team members have come up with this week, along with our super talented Guest Designer, Biggan!
