Color Throwdown #56 with Rubbernecker


It's time again for another Color Throwdown, and this week brings us to challenge #56 being hosted by Broni, and sponsored by Rubbernecker! Be sure to stop by the Throwdown blog for more information about the challenge, prizes from Rubbernecker, and many other details you won't want to miss! We hope you'll make time to play along with these warm colors, and remember you don't have to have these exact colors to play! Just use whatever you have that is similar, upload to your blog or online gallery (use CTD56 for the keyword!) and leave a link on the Throwdown blog in Mr. Linky! One lucky participant will win some blog candy from Rubbernecker, and one lucky participant will be chosen as Featured Stamper, and will be in the running to be our Guest Designer for October!
I honestly balked at these colors at first, but am now thrilled with how my card turned out! I hope you'll be inspired to give the colors a try, too! I chose to use the Rubbernecker Daisies stamp, and had such a good time coloring these flowers with my Copic markers.

Stop by the other Throwdown girls' blogs for more inspiration...
Sylvia, August Guest Designer
