Color Throwdown 643-You Are an Amazing Friend

It's time for another Color Throwdown! Broni is our hostess this week with an almost monochromatic color combination--aqua, ice blue, and pale green. If you know Broni, you know these are most definitely Broni colors!

I paired the colors with the current Fab Friday challenge and stamps from SugarPea Designs. I let a fun sentiment take center stage here, stamping the large, bold "you" from SPD's You set in aqua ink on a cream panel. It's hard to see in the photo, but the "you" has a dotted pattern in the letters, with more distance between the dots at the top to give the letters a faded look. It goes perfectly with the minty blue-green dotted patterned paper I used to cover most of the cardfront. The panel was matted on mint green cardstock, then adhered to an aqua card base. After matting the sentiment panel on the same cardstock colors as the patterned paper panel but in reverse order, I added the panel to the center of the cardfront. It was topped with a narrow ice blue cardstock strip stamped with "are an amazing friend" in aqua ink. A trio of enamel dots arranged around the sentiment strip tied all of the card's dotted elements together.

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 CTD643.  If you upload your projects on social media, go ahead and use the hashtag #ctd643 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 Deborah Wheeler.
