Color Throwdown 782-Sprinkled with Lots of Fun

 

It's time for another Color Throwdown! Kelly is our hostess this week with a combination of colors inspired by a pretty floral bouquet--burgundy, rose, and sage.

I needed a birthday card for a colleague, so I used the colors along with the current sketch from the Paper Players to make a donut themed birthday card. My focal image is a die cut donut from Reverse Confetti's Donut You Know stamp set. I die cut the donut from kraft cardstock and the icing from pink, then used a burgundy ink to add the stamped sprinkles. The panels on the cardfront were created from pink and burgundy cardstock scraps. I matted them on sage green panels before arranging them on a white panel. The donut die cut was adhered with foam tape. I tucked the narrow sage green strip under the donut, then stamped the birthday sentiment on the pink panel in the space just beneath the strip. The finished panel was adhered to an easy to write on pink card base.

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 CTD782.  If you upload your projects on social media, go ahead and use the hashtag #ctd782 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.
