Layered Poppies–Color Throwdown #350

~

Hello there!  It’s time for a new edition of the Color Throwdown challenge!

This week Lori is our hostess and she’s chosen this unique photo inspiring us with colors of orange, pink, green, and black.

My colors are a little bolder than hers but still the same colors.  I watercolored some Layered Poppies using Distress Worn Lipstick ink and Color Bursts in Orange, Lemon Yellow and Pthalo Green.

I watched Dave’s video at the Rubbernecker website on the Layered Poppy Set page before I started because I wanted to be sure I used the Color Bursts the same way he did on these flowers.  His ended up with more vibrant pops of the colors, but I’ll keep trying until I can achieve the same affect.

Now it’s your turn to play along with us!  You just have to use the basic stated colors and submit your directly-linked entry on today’s post at the Color Throwdown blog. 

Check out all the beautiful inspiration from the CTD girls too:

"love"! I have NO idea why you think you need to keep trying when this is so beautiful. I could be clueless or blinded by the strategically placed sequins or knocked senseless from swattin' skeeters, but I'm thinking this is darn near perfect. Happy 3/5 down and 2/5 to go!
