Color Throwdown #87

Danielle is our hostess this week with this pretty combo:

Very elegant colors, and I went right to work, pulling out some BG paper and a favorite SU set, Friends 24-7:

Well, I pulled out all the stops---BIG bow, stitching, watercolored background, bling, punches, Nesties…you name it!  I love the card, just not sure about that watercolored background on the circular panel.  I used watercolor paper and stamped the image in Basic Gray, then used reinkers to paint.  I then took a wide flat paintbrush and some watered-down ink to brush the background.  I finished it by stamping French Script over the whole thing.  The sentiment is from PTI; DP is from Basic Gray.  Here’s the inside:

And the sketch I used is from Karen Giron’s Sweet Sunday Sketch  #63:

Now let’s see what you can create using Danielle’s colors!  After creating your project, post it on your blog or an online gallery and link it on the CTD blog with the InLinkz feature so we can see them in all their goodness!  And here are the links to the other CTD designers:
