Color Throwdown Day!



Hello! It's time for another Color Throwdown Challenge! This week Danielle is our hostess and she chose an awesome palette of colors for us this week. Have a look...



Look, Ma. No Pinwheels!



The jury is still out on this one. It's definitely growing on me. I feel like this stamp set has been done to death, but I just got it so I'm playing around. It's definitely a little out of my comfort zone so maybe that's why I feel funny about it. Either way, this In Bloom set is gorgeous and so is that sentiment that goes with it. I had to lop off the bottom of this card. I was adding a stick pin to the ribbon when it jabbed me in the finger...and...well....you get the rest of the story! I'm telling ya, I'm literally thinking to myself "get your finger out of the way" and then BOOM! It still happened. Silly girl!

Anywhoo, could you like to play along? Stop by the Color Throwdown blog and read up on how to participate! And don't forget to stop by the blogs of the CTD designers for more inspiration using this week's colors.

  2. This is perfect with those colors~!
    I know what you mean about certain sets. I got Roses in Winter recently (OLD!) and would love to play with it without feeling like everything had already been done. I think your card is fresh and smart~!

  7. I love how you used the flower outline stamped in color. Beautiful! And you probably could've left the bottom of the card....would have blended with the rose red, right??
