The Color Throwdown 101 – Just a Note

 

Hello everyone~

Thank you all for celebrating the Color Throwdown 100th Challenge with us!! We had over 350 participants for the event! I enjoyed checking your beautiful projects and I was also encouraged by so many wonderful comments. Thank you so much!! The prize winners are going to be post at CTD Blog on Friday (I will post the KSS gift certificate winner here at the same time)…so please be patient for a little longer…

 

Well, as you know, the show must go on and I hope you are ready to play another beautiful color combo (CTD101- check out the swatch on the right). Please stop by the Color Throwdown Blog for all the details.

 

 

My card for the last challenge was a kind of bright and a lot of layers….so I decided to use this color combo with more simple and cleaner style :) The fern images were stamped on the watercolor paper and the paper was water colored with re-inkers. After the ink was completely dried, I off-stamped the images again for the shadows. The paper piercing was done on the stamped mat and the kraft layer. The cotton silk ribbon was pleated when it was attached and I embellished the pearls to complete the card.

You can purchase the same stamps, watercolor paper, cotton silk ribbon and pearls at Flourishes LLC.
