Color Throwdown Wednesday

swatch 125

This weeks Color Throwdown is being hosted by Barbara and she selected these lovely soft  colors for today’s challenge!   She also gifted me with this adorable Pure Innocence stamp set called Love You With All My Heart which was just perfect for these colors!  I also used the Sweet Sunday Sketch #100.

I began by stamping the image on Flourishes Classic White card stock and colored with Copics.

I used patterned paper from Kaiser for the circle and her paper pieced dress.  I used the Die-namics rolled flower die from My Favorite Things to make the large paper flower and hand cut the smaller ones, inking the edges of the paper before rolling them.  The leaves are Martha Stewart dies.   Both the large scallop and crocheted borders are also Die-namics from MFT

Thank you to everyone who participated in last weeks challenge which was dedicated to Katie Renz. 

Please join us this week for another great color challenge.  Link your creation direct to the post on the Color Throwdown and don’t forget to use keyword CTD125 if you upload to a public gallery.  Now check out the great creations from the design team!
