Painted Hearts - Color Throwdown #379

~

Hello, everyone!

It’s time for our latest Color Throwdown and this week Lynn has a beautiful color palette for us to play with.  Just in time for Valentine’s Day!

~

I wasn’t sure about the combination at first until I started playing with my Kuretake Zig Clean Color pens in those colors.  Then I fell in love!

To make my card I die cut the hearts from the patterned paper first.  Then I layered it over some watercolor paper and lightly penciled in the heart shapes.  I removed the patterned paper and used my Clean Color pens to paint the hearts similar to the ones in the inspiration photo.  When that was dry, I dripped some Heidi Swapp gold Color Shine onto the hearts, and also flicked some of the other colors over them as well.

I die cut the LOVE from some gold shiny cardstock and some fun foam and layered them together on the card front.  I added some twine and that was it!

I’m entering this card in the Just Us Girls challenge #329:  Valentine.

So I really hope you’ll play along with us this week at the Color Throwdown!  I can’t wait to see what you create! 

Please be sure to visit with the rest of the CTD girls here:

That gold "love" on fun foam is so pretty! Like the modern feel of this one. Sure like that your heart shapes are a bit funky. Never anything ordinary from you, Beachy! Happy Valentines Dsy!

Love how you pulled the colors together in these hearts! That gold sentiment is the perfect pop of pizzazz!

WOW!!! This is so striking, Broni! You nailed this week's colors and inspiration photo with your beautiful watercolored hearts, gold flecked paper and shimmery gold Love.
