Color Throwdown #44


This weeks Color Throwdown is brought to us by Tammy and sponsored by Stamping Out Alzheimers. Head over to Tammy's blog to read all about it and then check out this wonderful site!

I had a tough time with this weeks color combo...it's really gorgeous-but I just couldn't seem to get them to gel...without BG Wisteria paper! Mine should be arriving shortly, but not in time to save me from this!

Anyway, this is Ivy Ketto from Stamping Bella. She is colored with Copic markers. The dot paper I found in my stash and is from a company I had never heard of before-and can't remember now! Oops. It was a pretty good compliment to the color combo though. The problem was trying to work in the blue... I think the large gems in the Prima flowers are throwing me. I was going for a lot of sparkle, as you can see with the glitter on Ivy, but I might have overdone it. Too many gems...too many flowers. Well, I guess you can tell I don't like this card much. I guess we can't produce winners everyday! At least the image is adorable!
