If You Were a Cactus, I’d Still Hug You–Color Throwdown Challenge #603

Hey there, welcome to a brand new Color Throwdown Challenge! This week my good friend Broni is our hostess and she’s challenging us to some bright colors based on her awesome inspiration piece!

To begin, I cover a Sweet Tooth card stock base with Sweet Celebration Paper Pad and added Stitched Triple Peek-a-Boo Window & Edge Die-namics cut from Sweet Tooth card stock.

Next I stamped the images from BB Let’s Stick Together Stamp Set on No Line Coloring card stock with Extreme Black hybrid ink, cut them out with the coordinating Die-namics, and colored them with Copic markers. Then I popped them, as well as the heat embossed sentiment, up on the card front with foam tape.

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 CTD603 so we can see your beauty all in one place, and use #ctd603 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!
