Color Throwdown #290

swatch 290
Hello, my stampy friends… it’s time for another Color Throwdown challenge, and this week it’s my turn as hostess.  I hope you’ll join us this week!
When my Dad passed away several months ago, we had to spend several weekends getting his house cleaned out.  In the process, I came across several sets of Pyrex dishes that my Mom must have got as wedding gifts, or very early in their marriage.  Now they are my Pyrex dishes, and finding even more has become my new favorite obsession!  :)  So when I found this photo recently, I thought it’d be terrific for a Throwdown challenge!
Here’s my card…
CTD290
I went with a simple layout this time, using the Pure Innocence Sunny Thoughts stamp set, colored with Copics.  In the background, I used some translucent embossing paste with a rain drops stencil, and added a few flags with the sentiment to finish it off.
Be sure to stop over at the CTD blog for all the challenge details, and visit my Throwdown sisters for more inspiration…
