Color Throwdown 561-Best Witches


It's time for another Color Throwdown! Amy Rysavy is our hostess this week with a fun color palette--purple, light green, teal, and ivory.  I paired the colors with the current TGIF challenge and some Halloween themed stamps from Reverse Confetti.

Best Witches card-designed by Lori Tecler/Inking Aloud-stamps from Reverse Confetti
I colored up the witch image from the Best Witches stamp set with Copic markers, then used the matching die to cut out the colored image.  It doesn't show in the photo, but I used a clear glitter brush pen to give the witch's face a light dusting of sparkles.  For the background, I used a border die from Lil' Inker Designs to cut a star-filled panel from teal cardstock.  I backed the panel with ivory cardstock to fill in the negative space.  After matting the teal panel on pale green cardstock, I adhered it to a purple card base. The base is much more plum-colored IRL than it looks in the photo.  I added the witch on top using foam tape for dimension.  The set's "best witches" sentiment was stamped on a light green banner strip and adhered to the top left side of the teal panel 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 CTD561  If you upload your projects on social media, go ahead and use the hashtag #ctd561 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 and this week's Guest Star Stamper, Izzy.
