May Your Holidays Be Beary & Bright–Color Throwdown Challenge #570

Hello, it’s time for a new Color Throwdown Challenge! This week Wanda is our hostess and she has a fun color combo based on her yummy inspiration photo!




I almost went with the snowman theme but then I thought about BB Beary Best Friends Stamp Set and Die-namics and knew that was where I wanted to go. The background was done by sponging Carved Pumpkin and Mermaid Lagoon Distress Inks then spattering with clear water and added the sentiment before adhering the panel to a Sweet Tooth card base. I built the scene, once that was done, using Stitched Snow Drifts, BB Icebergs, and Cute Cloud Outlines.

The images were stamped on No Line Coloring Card Stock using Extreme Black hybrid ink, cut out with the coordinating Die-namics, colored with Copic markers, and added to the scene with foam tape. Foam tape was also used to achieve dimension in scene building, as well.

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 CTD570 so we can see your beauty all in one place, and use #ctd570 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, including our super talented November Guest Designer, Michelle Lupton!
