Wednesday Color Throwdown Challenge

swatch 91 

This weeks gorgeous color combo is brought to us by Broni!  My Basic Grey Lemonade paper was just perfect for this.   I used my brand spankin’ new image from Lili of the Valley called Deck Chair Dreaming.

DPK_CTD91

The super cutie was stamped on Flourishes card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic markers.  I shaded around the image with a Prismacolor pencil and oms.   The image panel is matted on a piece of solid paper from Lemonade and Kiwi Kiss card stock.  The patterned paper from Lemonade is mounted on a Tempting Turquoise card base.  It’s all finished with a simple sheer swiss dot ribbon and a flower from Prima.

So head on over to the Color Throwdown to play along this week!  Don’t forget to visit all of the DT members below and see all of the great samples.  We have a new guest designer for May too!
