Sending You Strength–Color Throwdown #457

CTD457_2017aug23

Hi, everyone! It’s time for a new Color Throwdown Challenge! Today Lori has a SWEET color combo for us based on her very chic inspiration piece,

I thought these soft shades would be perfect for a sympathy card so I stamped up some In Bloom images with the challenge colors and cut them out with the coordinating In Bloom Die-namics. I added some Prills for the flower centers, adhered with hot glue. As a base for the blooms, I stamped Distressed Patterns on Sweet Tooth card stock cut with Mod Rectangle STAX Die-namics, along with a sentiment from Deepest Sympathy.

I matted the card front with Roses All Over Pastels Paper Pack, also cut with Mod Rectangle STAX Die-namics, adhered it to the card base, and popped the front up on foam mounting tape. After I adhered the flowers and leaves I was done.

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 CTD457 so we can see your beauty all in one place, and use #ctd457 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, including our incredibly talented August Guest Designer, Sheri Gilson!
