I Can’t Thank You Enough–Color Throwdown Challenge #608

Hello there and welcome to another Color Throwdown Challenge!! This week Lynn is our hostess and she has a lovely palette for us to work with based on her gorgeous inspiration piece.




I went with more saturated shades because I wanted to watercolor through Inward Elements Stencil. Once the watercoloring was done, I splattered with clean water and gold and black acrylic ink, then popped the panel up on Black Licorice card stock and then directly to a Sweet Tooth card stock base.

Next I added Thank You Die-namics, cut from Gold Sparkle Die-namics and popped it up on foam for dimension. The design was completed with parts of a sentiment from Bitty Thanks & Gratitude, heat embossed with gold detail embossing powder. The only thing left to do was to add a few gold glitter enamel dots.

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 CTD608 so we can see your beauty all in one place, and use #ctd608 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!
