Enjoy the Journey - Color Throwdown #241

Howdy there, folks!  It's time for a new Color Throwdown challenge!  Today, Joan is our mega-talented hostess and she's chosen a most beautiful floral image as her inspiration:

I almost pulled out some floral images but then decided it was time to get inky!  That's always fun, don't ya think??

I started by smooshing some Distress Bundled Sage onto my craft sheet, spritzing it with water, and then laying my kraft card front down into it.  I dried it with my heat gun, then adhered some Coffee Filter Words tissue paper using Studio Matte Multi-Medium.  When that was dry,I spritzed the card front with some Dylusions White Linen ink spray.

I stamped the dragonfly from the Bo Bunny Serenade collection in elegant eggplant onto the card front, then stamped some of the smaller images in eggplant and mellow moss.

Next I layered on some cardstock strips and washi tape and the Stacked Artful Words die cut.  To finish the card I dipped my finger into some of the White Linen ink spray and ran it all along the card front edges.  Then I tied on some Twinery Lilac twine and I was done!

I hope you'll play along in the Color Throwdown challenge with us!  All the details are on the CTD blog.  Please take a moment to visit with all the CTD gals too:

Oh, Broni! This is stunning! I love your use of washi tape and cardstock strips. I love the luminous quality, and the layering of images. The bold sentiment just grabs me, and then there are those delicate little bits of stamping to counter it...just magnificent! One of my faves!!!!

I love this layered look! It is something that my brain cannot figure out how to do!
I think I might need some of that White Linen spray....sigh

You sure know how to layer a card! That white linen spray is neat-o. Now I need to journey to my studio and get crackin' on my Mothers Day cards. Thanks for the inspiration.
