Color Throwdown 569-With Sympathy


It's time for another Color Throwdown!  Vickie is our hostess today with a floral inspired color combination--purple, lavender, and green.

With Sympathy card-designed by Lori Tecler/Inking Aloud-stamps and dies from Avery ElleI paired the colors with the current sketch at CAS(e) this Sketch to create a simple sympathy card.  I stamped up a bunch of small flowers and leaves in shades of purple, lavender, and green using Avery Elle's Fabulous Florals stamp set.  After cutting out the pieces with the matching dies, I arranged them at the top right corner of a small lavender panel matted on a slightly larger piece of green cardstock.  It's been a while since I used this stamp set and I'd forgotten how fun it is to play around with the arrangement of the images to create a pretty floral spray.

The layered panel was adhered to the top half of a lavender card base on an angle.  For the sentiment, I die cut "with sympathy" from purple cardstock using AE's With Sympathy dies.  The die cut words were adhered across the cardfront, overlapping both the layered panel and the card base.

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 CTD569If you upload your projects on social media, go ahead and use the hashtag #ctd569 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, our November Guestie Michelle Lupton, and this week's Guest Star Stamper Jennifer Weide.
