It's time for another Color Throwdown! Lynn is our hostess this week with a mix of cool colors--pink, aqua, lavender, and mint.
I paired the colors with the current challenge at Fab Friday and stamps from Reverse Confetti. I had colored the mermaid image from RC's Mermaid Kisses set with Copic markers for this month's Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge, trying to do a seamless blend from color to color on her tail. A little coating of glitter helps to hide the imperfections! After cutting the image out with the matching die, I used foam tape to adhere the image to an aqua panel. The sentiment was stamped to the left of the raised image. I matted the panel on purple cardstock and adhered it to a pink card base. A minty green "wave" strip was added to the cardfront, tucked beneath the raised mermaid image 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 CTD548. If you upload your projects on social media, go ahead and use the hashtag #ctd548 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, June's Guest Designer, Alicia Thelin, and this week's Guest Star Stamper, Lee Ann Barrett.
