Enjoy the Little Things - Color Throwdown Challenge #685

 

Hey, y'all, it's time for a brand new color Throwdown Challenge! This week our hostess is Susie with a color palette that's all Springy-Summery! Hope to see you playing along with us this week!

I'm using elements from the just released Stylish Bouquet MFT March card kit for this card: Stylish Sentiments Stamp Set, Flower Bouquet Die-namics, Bouquet Wrap Die-namics, and Flower Bouquet Builder Stencil.

To begin, I cut Flower Bouquet Die-namics from Orange Zest and Sour Apple card stock and stenciled accents with Jalapeño Popper and Moroccan Spice dye inks, added some black accents, then assembled the individual flowers. Once done, I gathered them into a bouquet and put them inside Bouquet Wrap Die-namics, cut from Kraft card stock.

Next I spattered some black acrylic ink on Sweet Tooth card stock and adhered it to a Sweet Tooth card stock base with foam tape. The wrapped bouquet was then adhered to the card front with more foam tape. The sentiment was heat embossed on Black Licorice card stock and also popped up on the card front with foam tape. Some sweet glitter enamel dots finished it off.

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 #CTD685 so we can see your beauty all in one place, and use #ctd685 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!
