Wishing You the Happiest Birthday - Color Throwdown Challenge #631

 

Hello and welcome to a brand new Color Throwdown Challenge! This week Amy Rysavy is our hostess and she's chosen some gorgeous colors for us to play with.

I thought these colors would be good used with these delicate flowers from Mother's Day Bouquet Stamp Set and Die-namics--AND, I needed to show them some love so here we are. 

To begin, I stamped the images on No Line Coloring card stock with Extreme Black hybrid ink, cut them out with the coordinating Die-namics, colored them with Copic markers, then set them aside. Next I added strips of Black & White Stripes Patterned Paper on each side of a Sweet Tooth card stock base.

Then, on a Sweet Tooth card stock panel, I stamped Happiest Birthday Stamp Set with Caribbean Sea dye ink, adhered it to the card base with foam tape and popped the stamped and colored images up on that, also 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 #CTD631 so we can see your beauty all in one place, and use #ctd631 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!
