Color Throwdown #298

CTD298-closeup
Hello friends, it’s time for another Color Throwdown challenge and this week Monika is our hostess with a sweet pastel color combo for you to try!

I hope you’ll hop over to the CTD blog and join us this week!  We would love to see what you create!
For my card, I pulled out my LJD Sweet Roses stamp set and the LJD Roses and Leaves Die-namics, along with the Pierced Traditional Tag STAX Die-Namics…

Across the bottom of the Kraft card stock tag, I stamped dots from the DC Large Scale Backgrounds stamp set in Natural hybrid ink.  I also spritzed the tag with some MIX-ables Sheer Shimmer Mist for a little sparkle.  Then I stamped the flowers from the in Pink Lemonade, Cotton Candy, Grapesicle and Grape Jelly hybrid inks, and the leaves in Spearmint hybrid ink.  On the card base I stamped the BG Linen background in Insulation Pink premium dye ink.  To finish the tag, I stamped the “friend” sentiment from the LLD Friend Request stamp set on a tag from the Blueprints 14.  I attached the tag with two staples from my Tim Holtz Tiny Attacher, and added a hemp cord double bow at the top of the tag.
Be sure to stop over at the CTD blog for all the challenge details, and play along!  And be sure to see my Throwdown sisters for more inspiration…
