Hello, everyone! Are you ready for the latest and greatest Color Throwdown? Barbara (the birthday girl yesterday!) is our hostess, and her color combo is fabulous!

I love this palette!
Sadly I needed a sympathy card this week, and took the opportunity to use these beautiful colors.
~
I used the negative of a die cut circle and my Life Shapes Large stencil to apply some Studio 490 white embossing paste. When that was dry, I placed the die cut circle on top of it and airbrushed around the circle using my B72 Copic marker. I also traced the circle onto one long strip of patterned paper then cut both ends to use on the card. The flower and leaves were colored with Copic markers too.
My layout is from the Sunday Stamps sketch challenge #SSC76:
