Framed Marigolds - Color Throwdown #137

~

Well, here it is.  Another Wednesday.  Didn't we just have one?

You know what that means….it's time for another Color Throwdown challenge.  Cathy is our hostess this week and her color combo is just awesome!

I didn't strictly stick with the colors, but I really NEEDED to add the orange and the touch of black for drama.  (And of course the kraft.)

This image is totally awesome and I LOVED coloring it!  It's from Arielle's digital stamp company, Wax Fruit Company.  What a terrific artist she is!!   I've got several more images and you'll be seeing them in the coming weeks.

Pretty darn cool, huh?  I knew you'd love it!!

So now it's your turn.  You don't have to use the exact colors if you don't have them, but please try to stay close.  Directly link your blog post containing your entry using the linky tool on the Color Throwdown blog.  All the other details you need to know can be found there too.

Now here's some fabulous inspiration from our blog team:
