Color Throwdown 28

CTD28 banner

Wow, things are really getting exciting at the CTD blog!  A Featured Stamper was picked yesterday--my bloggin' buddy, Lisa!  You can see her card here.  And Maria has been chosen as the Featured Designer for this month--we'll see her upcoming creation next week!  You stampers have really stepped up the "heat"!  So come play with us again!  Post your creation to your blog and link it in the comment screen at the Color Throwdown blog, or post it on an online gallery using the keyword CTD28!

Today's colors come courtesy of Barb, and great colors they are!  Yummy, delicious, candy colors!  Here is my take:

CTD28-2

This card started out totally differently than the way it ended!!  That ever happen to you?  The RHR panel and the heart have been stamped with Linen.  The RHR panel has been CB'd with Swiss Dots and everything has been distressed with Close to Cocoa ink.  I took this picture in the evening.....it really looks much nicer IRL!  Here is the inside:

I know it's faint, but I stamped the heart again in Pink Pirouette ink.

 

 

 

And the sketch is from Amy Rysavy :

AMYRS56 I did put the bow in the center as I thought it looked more pleasing to me!  I also thought the sentiment from PTI's Quilter's Sampler Sentiments was perfect for this image!

Now let's see what the other CTD designers have come up with today:

    If this finished differently than it started, that may not be a bad thing. The end result is great.

    Beautiful card! You asked about the sentiment stamp on my card, it's not a SU! stamp set. It's actually a clear Inkadinkado set. I can send you a picture if you'd like to see the whole set. I use it often, as it's really pretty with the circles that accompany the sentiments.

    Have a wonderful evening!
