Thankful Flourishes - Color Throwdown #211

~

Hey, guys!  Are you ready for some …….Throwdown??  Surely you didn't think I was going to say football, did you? LOL!

This week Wanda is our hostess and she's chosen the most beautiful inspiration photo!

I was a little unsure of the color choices however.  That Summer Starfruit color really threw me off.  I still don't have a good grip on what exactly that color is.  But trudge on I did!!  I used a few different greenish, yellowish elements in hopes that Starfuit is at least sort of represented!

I used my Thankful Flourishes set from Our Craft Lounge.  That will always be one of my favorite floral sets!  The latest challenge at the OCL blog is OCL135 - Hexagons!  Love hexagons, so I'm playing along in that challenge too!

And my layout is the MOJO260 sketch, but my card isn't round or square.  Oops!

We hope you'll join us in the Color Throwdown challenge this week!  You don't have to use the exact colors (like me!), but just something close!  Then link up your creation at the CTD blog.

Check out the great inspiration from my Color Throwdown sisters here:

I'd like to extend a HUGE thanks to my dear friend, Sherry Cheever, for so graciously playing along with us this month.  Her creations are ALWAYS awesome!!

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you'll come back for another visit very soon!

Oh, Broni...absolutely beautiful! I love the simplicity of the elements. I know firsthand it's a lot of work to make it look that easy!

[Starla]

Gorgeous! I just realized that I have that same stamp set (uhhh...never used! gasp!)...What a lovely inspiration! (now I just have to convince mojo to move back home!)

[Wanda Cullen]

Wow, this is a fabulous use of this rather difficult color combo (who in the world picked those out - lol?!). In fact, I love your card so much, I pinned it!

Broni, this is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! I just love how you colored the flower and the textures are fabulous! Also, congrats on making the Top 15 for Last Card Standing! Your card was adorable and I can't wait to see what you come up with for this round:)

Absolutely stunning! Love it!

This is gorgeous, Broni! Love the way you colored the flower image.

OMGosh Broni, this is fantastic! Love how you used these colors with one of my Dave O'CLOCK sets and the different design elements you worked in with the die-cuts, pennant flags and embossing!

[Joan Ervin]

Ooooh, Broni...your flower is sooo gorgeous!!!!! I'm lovin all the hexagons in the background, too, and what a great way to add the ribbon!!!!

[Lynn Put]

This is beautiful Broni! Your flower is so eye catching and pretty and I love how you used the hexagons in your design!
