Color Throwdown 723-Winter Wishes

It's time for another Color Throwdown! Broni is our hostess this week with a pretty mix of colors--gold, pink, and ice blue.

My super simple design is based on the current challenge at Sunday Stamps. I used Copic markers to color the snowflake filled envelope from Pretty Pink Posh's Holiday Envelopes in the lightest of icy blue before cutting out the image. The image was adhered to a pale pink card base on an angle using foam tape for dimension. I used a light blue pigment ink to stamp a trio of snowflakes above and below the envelope, then dotted each flake's center with a pink self adhesive crystal. The set's "winter wishes" sentiment was stamped on a gold fishtail flag strip in black ink. I positioned it over the envelope image to finish 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 CTD723.  If you upload your projects on social media, go ahead and use the hashtag #ctd723 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.
