It's time for another Color Throwdown! Broni is our hostess this week with a fantastic mix of colors--aqua, gray, and red.
I paired the colors with the current challenge at CAS Colours and Sketches for this simple Father's Day design. I used a square punch to cut red and gray cardstock squares, then arranged them on a silver paper square. After topping each square with a die cut pierced star in a contrasting color, I added the panel to a square aqua card base. The "happy Father's Day" sentiment from the My Favorite Things All About Dad stamp set was stamped in black on a narrow red cardstock strip, then placed just beneath the silver square to finish 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 CTD833. If you upload your projects on social media, go ahead and use the hashtag #ctd833 and #colorthrowdown.
