Celebrate, It's Your Day - Color Throwdown Challenge #679

 

It's time for a brand new Color Throwdown Challenge! This week's colors are courtesy of Miss Vickie and I love them!!

I started by doing a watercolor wash on Ranger Watercolor Paper after heat embossing it in gold with Peacock Pattern Background. Once dry, I spattered it with clean water and black acrylic ink. Once THAT was dry I adhered it with foam to a Sweet Tooth card stock base edged with Black & White Stripes Patterned Paper and piped with Black Licorice and Gold Sparkle card stocks.

Celebrate Die-namics was cut from Gold Sparkle card stock and popped up on foam tape then the sentiment from Bitty Birthday Wishes Stamp Set was heat embossed in white on Black Licorice card stock cut with Skinny Strips Die-namics. 

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 #CTD679 so we can see your beauty all in one place, and use #ctd679 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!
