Hello Friend - Color Throwdown Challenge #695

 

Hello and welcome to a brand new Color Throwdown Challenge! This week Susie is our hostess and she has a fun palette of cool colors for us to play with.

I might have mentioned how thrilled I am to have Abstract Art Stamp Set out of the MFT Vault and back in the line up during the Vault Release. I love this set so much and got it out again for today's card.

To begin, I stamped the brush strokes on a Sweet Tooth card stock card front using, top to bottom, Summer Splash, Blue Yonder, and Grapesicle dye inks, then over stamped the sentiment from BB Gill Friends using Extreme Black hybrid ink.

Then I spattered some black and gold acrylic ink and adhered it to a Sweet Tooth card stock base with foam tape. Next I added part of Thank You for Being a Friend Die-namics, cut from Gold Shine card stock and popped up on foam tape, and finished off with some matching 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 #CTD695 so we can see your beauty all in one place, and use #ctd695 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!
