Abstract Sunset - Color Throwdown #648

~

Hey, y'all!

It's time for the latest, greatest Color Throwdown challenge.  This week our bright color combo is Orange, Pink, Lavender, and Green.

~

~

I just purchased several items from the new Essentials by Ellen release, and I couldn't wait to use them!  My card features the Abstract Sunset die, along with the A2 Piercing Plate and the Essential Arches die.

~

~

I water colored the entire piece after die cutting it and taping it from behind to hold the panels together.  I intentionally offset and raised two of the panels to show some dimension.  And I just love the look of the piercing on all of the panels.  I added Glossy Accents to the sun and some random enamel dots in each of the colors. Doesn't the arched opening make it feel like you're looking through a window at the sunset?

I hope you'll join us for the challenge this week.  Aren't these fun colors?  Please check out all the great designs from our team members here:

Hello Beautiful - Color Throwdown #647

~

Time for another brand new Color Throwdown challenge!  This week our colors are Red, Green, Kraft, and Pink.

~

~

I decided to go with a floral card this week, so I pulled out the Mondo Sakura from Ellen Hutson.

~

~

I love this image!  And I think the colors worked perfectly with it!  This will be going to a dear, beautiful 95 year old lady on her birthday later this month!  

We'd love for you to play along with us this week using this great color palette!  And please check out the fantastic inspiration from our talented designers.

You Are Fin-tastic! - Color Throwdown #646

~

Hi, everyone!  It's time for another new Color Throwdown challenge.  This week our colors are Light Gray, Aqua, and Navy.

~

~

I believe this calls for a summer-themed masculine birthday card!  And it just so happens that I needed a card for my oldest grandson who just turned 21!  Whoop!  

~

~

I used the super fun S'Whale stamp set and dies from Ellen Hutson LLC.  I water colored the whale and used the Memory Box Waves 3D embossing folder for the background.

We would love for you to play along!  Check out the details at the CTD blog and also stop by to see all the cool creations from the super-talented designers here:
