CTD380

The Color Throw Down Color Challenge this week is red and gray. 

For my card I used Cherry Cobbler cs and Real Red and Basic Gray ink. I also used Washi Tape and decorative vellum. The bicycle stamp is from Pink Paislee Nantucket and the sentiment is from Flourishes.

I love color and sketch challenges. They always make me think outside of the box.

Color Throw Down 365

I am going to have to admit, this certainly was a challenge for me. These colors individually I can do but as a group, they are NOT in my wheel house. I struggled several hours with this and I'm still not sure I like it. But I wanted to play in the Color Throw Down challenge #365 just for the heck of it.

If these colors challenge you too, then you might want to go play with the ladies of CTD#365. Good Luck!

The Paper Players Challenge #199 - For my card I chose the Land of the Free stamp from Stampin' Up! I haven't used it very much since I purchased it. But when I saw the color combo this week I just had to go for it!

I started with Whisper White base. Then I cut stripes from Real Red. I punched the stand for my flag out of Night of Navy with the 1" circle punch and then cut it in half. The pole is from Silver Shimmer Paper and the little stars are from my stash of embellishments.

I went with a patriotic theme for my card. But red, white and blue works for any occassion, any time of the year.
