Color Throwdown 589-Love Ewe


It's time for another Color Throwdown!  Vickie is our hostess this week with a classic color combination--red, black, gray and white.

Love Ewe card-designed by Lori Tecler/Inking Aloud-stamps and dies from Avery Elle
I paired the colors with the current sketch at Sunday Stamps and a sweet image from Avery Elle.  The heart-holding lamb from the Hogs and Kisses stamp set was colored with Copic markers, then cut out with the matching die.  I stamped the set's "love ewe" sentiment directly on the heart in black ink.  For the background, I cut a panel of gray and white plaid paper on an angle, forming two blocks.  The blocks were adhered to a red mat, then placed on a black card base. The image was adhered on top at the right side of the panel overlapping the two angled pieces using foam tape for dimension.

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 CTD589If you upload your projects on social media, go ahead and use the hashtag #ctd589 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 April Guestie Judy Rozema, and this week's Guest Star Stamper Karen Ksenzakovic.
