Wednesday’s Color Throwdown #177

swatch 177
Today our Color Throwdown challenge is being hosted by Kerri and she picked this beautiful inspiration photo to pull her colors from.   I thought these were perfect for another Valentine’s Day card.
I have this really fun set of clear stamps from Inkadinkado called Animal Love that I’ve only used one image from, so I pulled it out and stamped off a few today.  My bunny took center stage on this card.  It’s stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Flourishes Classic White card stock and colored with Copic markers.

I shaded around the bunny with pink Prismacolor pencils and oms and I sponged with Memento London Fog around the oval panel with the Spellbinders die still in place.  I used the Classic Ovals and Big Scallop Oval Lg for the mat.   The patterned paper is from the Basic Grey Bittersweet pad.  I used two sizes of  Die-namics  Rolled Rose dies from MFT to make the felt roses and a Filigree Border die  from PTI for the black border.  The gem flourish is a partial from a larger flourish and the white trim is from a roll I picked up in AC Moore.   I used a bit of white flock on bunnys tail and some glitter on the heart. 
This was a really fun color challenge for me!  Make sure you check out all the great creations from our design team and don’t forget to head over to the Color Throwdown blog to play along with us this week!
