Color Throwdown 717-Go Get Carried Away

 It's time for another Color Throwdown! It's my turn to be challenge hostess this week and I've picked colors inspired by some retro style home decor--mustard, pink, and green.

Go Get Carried Away card-designed by Lori Tecler/Inking Aloud-stamps and dies from Mama Elephant

The layout for my design comes from the current challenge at Try Stampin' on Tuesday. I incorporated both the layout and the optional flight theme into my card using Mama Elephant's Carried Away and Up and Away stamp sets. The bunny and balloon were colored with Copic markers and cut out with the matching dies, then adhered to a yellow dotted patterned paper panel using foam tape for dimension. To anchor the bunny, I added a green rolling hill cut with ME's Landscape Trio dies. The panel was matted on pink cardstock and positioned on a yellow card base on an angle. I stamped the birthday sentiment on a strip of white cardstock. After matting it on the same pink I used to mat the image panel, I used more foam tape to layer it onto the cardfront to complete 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 CTD717.  If you upload your projects on social media, go ahead and use the hashtag #ctd717 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.
