Color Throwdown 762-You Really Autumn Know

It's time for another Color Throwdown! Kelly is our hostess this week with an earthy mix of colors--mossy green, rust, kraft, and cream

I paired the colors with the current challenge at The Paper Players for this fall themed thank you design. My focal panel features two die cut rust leaves dipped in gold embossing powder for extra sparkle. The leaves were adhered to a round cream panel using foam tape, then placed on a moss green panel with four kraft cardstock strips evenly spaced (or as evenly as I was able to space them...) on it. I stamped the "you really autumn know...I'm thankful for you" sentiment from Lawn Fawn's You Autumn Know stamp set on a moss cardstock strip. After adding foam tape to the ends of the strip, I positioned it over the image panel. The green panel was placed on a cream card base to complete the design.

To play along, just create a paper crafted project using these colors as a starting point and add a direct link to your finished project using the linky tool found at the end of this week's CTD post.  As always, if you don’t have exact color matches, something close works just fine. Just be sure that the challenge colors are the dominant ones in your project.  And, if you upload your project to an online gallery, use the keyword CTD762.  If you upload your projects on social media, go ahead and use the hashtag #ctd762 and #colorthrowdown.  You can find us on Instagram and on Facebook with the username colorthrowdown.  Before you get started, here’s some inspiration from the talented Color Throwdown team.
