Hello and happy Wednesday!  This week the Color Throwdown colors are a beautiful combo of Celery Green, Sage Green, Pale Pink, and Plum.

Possibilities - Color Throwdown #680

~

Happy Wednesday!  This week's Color Throwdown challenge is a great one!  I love this color palette: Light Blue, Dark Blue, Forest Green, and Brown. 

~

~

For once I actually used the inspiration photo to determine my design, complete with mountains and a tree!

~

~

All of my background layers, including the water colored sky were cut from scraps.  The tree was made using a Tim Holtz stencil, which was then fussy cut and layered over the background and the Essential Arches frame.  A Tim Holtz sentiment sticker finished it off!  I am really loving those stickers.  So many choices and so easy to stick anywhere you want them!

It's time for y'all to play along with us!  Check out all the details at the CTD blog and all the great inspiration at the designers' blogs:

LOVE - Color Throwdown 679

~

Happy day to you all!  It's Wednesday and time for another new Color Throwdown challenge!  This week our colors are Blue, Green, and Gold.

~

~

I love these colors and I love this inspiration piece!  I just used alcohol inks last week, but I couldn't resist using them again.  Here's my alcohol ink shaker card.

~

~

For this birthday card (no, it's not a Valentine!), I used the Love word die from Scrapbook.com and a Heart Stitches die from Papertrey Ink. And I made this into a fun glitter shaker card for the recipient.

We would love for you all to join us.  The details of the challenge are on the CTD blog and here are links to all the great inspiration from the designers:

I Think You're Fabulous - Color Throwdown #678

~

Happy Wednesday, y'all!  Today's Color Throwdown colors are Pink, Red, Cranberry, and Kraft.  What a great combo!

~

~

So, I've got a birthday card for a very special lady to show you today.  And I had the BEST time making it too!

Here's the card.

~

~

I always forget how fun it is to play with alcohol inks until I get a push to do so from someone.  This time the push came from Jennifer McGuire, and you KNOW how big her pushes are!!  Here's a link to her video that inspired me: Alcohol Ink Press Technique 

It was so easy and so fun!  And these colors were just perfect to play with!  The color that looks like kraft mixed in with the reds is actually a gold mixative and it's really shimmery IRL.  The sentiment is from WPlus9 and the sentiment die is from Technique Tuesday (links below).

Please come play along with us this week.  Check out all the details and rules at the CTD blog and then see all the fabulous inspiration here:
