Color Throwdown




It's time for another Color Throwdown Challenge and Lynn has a wonderful color combo that is so perfect for spring/summer creations! I just love those fun rain boots being used as vases! I'm also playing along with the April sketch for the current Sketch For You To Try Challenge on the Reverse Confetti blog.


Using papers from Recollections' Craft It Flora pad for the background, I layered up flowers from Reverse Confetti's Garden Bunch set - stamped in Daffodil Delight and Crushed Curry.  The sentiment is from RC's A Friend Like You stamp set.  I used Leafy Confetti Cuts and die cut the leaves from 3 different shades of green in my scrap pile.  A card really comes together quickly when you have both the layout and the colors spelled out!

Big congrats to our guest star stamper - Channin Pelletier of Craft Ghetto blog! Be sure to stop by her blog and say hello.

To get all the details on how to play along, please go to the Color Throwdown blog!  You can also check out the rest of the design teams' creations for more inspiration on the CTD blog or you can clink on their blog links below.
