Color Throwdown 673-Thinking of You

 
It's time for another Color Throwdown!  Broni is our hostess this week with a floral inspired color palette that's also perfect for seasonal designs--red, pink, and mint green.

Thinking of You card-designed by Lori Tecler/Inking Aloud-stamps and dies from Altenew
I paired the colors with the current challenge at Sunday Stamps and stamps, dies, and inks from Altenew. My focal image is one of the flowers from the Fabulous Florals set. I used my MISTI to line up and stamp the detailed layers of the bloom using pink and red inks. After stamping the leaf cluster in shades of mint ink, I used the matching dies to cut out the images. They were adhered to the left side of a red patterned paper panel using foam tape for dimension. I dressed up the panel with a pink satin ribbon knotted at the bottom and a solid red mat beneath it. The patterned panel was adhered to the right side of a mint green card base. I stamped the simple script "thinking of you" sentiment from the Thinking of You set beneath the leaves in black ink. A pair of gold glitter enamel dots arranged vertically to the left of the flower completed 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 CTD673.  If you upload your projects on social media, go ahead and use the hashtag #ctd673 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 Mac Mable.
