Color Throwdown Guest Designer

Hi friends - boy am I super excited for this post! THIS card was selected as the winner a couple of weeks ago over at the Color Throwdown, so this week I get to join the fun and guest design for the Color Throwdown. WOOT, WOOT!!

This week is another GREAT color challenge and I colored ALL the flowers and used ALL the glitter I could find!


Here's the colors this week:

I was inspired by THIS card, can you tell? I colored some Tim Holtz water color paper with Zig Clean Color Brushes in ombre pinks and greens, I spread the colors with a large brush and water, let it dry completely then stamped the flowers and leaves from WPlus9 Doodle Buds in Hero Arts black ink. I added a bit more shading and traced each image with a sharpie. I cut out each image (have I mentioned how bad I need those matching dies!!??!!) and traced the edges with a black marker so no white would show. I added clear wink of stella to each piece - LOTS OF SHIMMER!  Once the wink of stella was dry, I added some white gel dots. I embossed the black panel then made a little bouquet of flowers and leaves, added some glossy accents to the flowers and to the black panel and an embossed flag banner with a sentiment from the same stamp set.

For the top portion I used the Memory Box Mini Dots stencil and spread some sparkle glitter paste - I'm telling you, I'm pretty sure I have glitter in spots you should not have glitter.


Thanks for stopping by; hope you have a GREAT day!

Hugs,
