I'm a Color Throwdown Challenge Newbie!

Hieeee!!! I hope this blog post finds you well and happy! We spent the day in doors today as little man is a bit under the weather, but he actually napped today so I was able to get some stamping done. Yeeehaaaa!
I made a couple of baby cards I've been needing to get done and I used a Kim Hughes Click Simple Template from Papertrey Ink for both which I've been dying to try out. I also thought it would be fun to give the Color Throwdown Challenge #81 (CTD81) a try this week. This is my first time ever participating so I'm a newbie! The colors this week are brown, pink and olive which are some of my favorites together. However, as you can see I took my own creative liberties and used kraft instead of chocolate. Kraft is "technically" brown, isn't it?

The oneise card which is for the CTD81 challenge uses the SU hostess set called Cute as a Bug. I stamped my main image onto kraft and colored it with Copic markers and layered it onto a white scallop circle. Then I stamped a coordinating stamp from the set in white on the kraft base as a background and trimmed out the onsie's neck, sleeves and legs in white but decided to give the legs a little frill and used a scallop circle. I added a sentiment stamped in chocolate to the main image panel with a cute little button.
My elephant was very simple. I basically just printed him right onto the card stock, cut him out and added a button eye. Although I did score his ear so that it stands up a bit. I think this little guys makes for the cutest little cards. What do you think?
I hoping to do a lot more online challenges over the next several weeks! They're just plain fun! If you decide to play along in this week's Color Throwdown, make sure you let me know!
Thanks for stopping by!
