Classic T-Bird - Color Throwdown #84

~

It's my turn to host the Color Throwdown this week, and I've chosen some retro colors for us to play with - think Miami in the 40's or 50's.

This is my dream car.  I've always loved a classic T-Bird and especially one in aqua.  Love, love, love it!!!

So you know when I found this image on the Just For Fun ® website, I just had to have it.  And I just love how well it goes with this Graphic 45 paper (On the Boardwalk), which was the inspiration for my color combo.

The beach and a T-Bird...my idea of heaven!!

I hope you'll play along with us!  Just post a direct link to your card or project using this week's colors on the Color Throwdown blog.

Now check out the fantastic creations of my fellow design team members:

I also love that classic T-Bird! I’m always a fan of vintage cars, especially blue ones. Are you planning to buy a car like this? Well, I’ve started saving already so that I can purchase myself a vintage car in the near future.
