Color Throwdown 815-Thankful for a Friend Like You

It's time for another Color Throwdown! Susie is our hostess this week with a great mix of colors--aqua, orange, and green.

Here's my take on the challenge colors using the layout from TGIF Challenges. I built my design on an aqua card base. I cut three cream panels and matted each on olive green cardstock before placing them vertically along the right side of the cardfront. The top and bottom panel are filled with leaf die cuts created with the Stitched Autumn Icons dies from SugarPea Designs. The middle panel has a pair of stitched pumpkins cut with the same dies. For interest I adhered them with foam tape to add dimension. I stamped "thankful for a friend like you" in orange ink on a cream panel, then matted it on olive cardstock before positioning it on the cardfront overlapping the pumpkin pair.

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 CTD815. If you upload your projects on social media, go ahead and use the hashtag #ctd815 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.
