Happy Holidays - Color Throwdown Challenge #717

 


Hello and welcome to a brand new Color Throwdown Challenge! This week Lori is our hostess and she has a classic color combo for us to work with based on her quirky inspiration piece.

I decided to go all classic with my product choice and design. I'm using DBD Pretty Poinsettias Stamp Set and Die-namics for the images which were stamped on No Line coloring card stock with Extreme Black hybrid ink, cut out with the coordinating Die-namics, and colored with Copic markers.

Once the images were done I set them aside and started on the card base. Smooth White card stock was covered with Joyful Plaid Patterned Paper, then the sentiment was heat embossed on Black Licorice card stock and adhered to the card base with foam tape.

The colored images were adhered with hot glue and foam tape and I finished off with 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 #CTD717 so we can see your beauty all in one place, and use #ctd717 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!
