Guest Designing for Color Throwdown #325


Hey everyone, and happy Wednesday!  I'm super excited because I get to guest design for the Color Throwdown this morning and the colors are fabulous (as always)!  The colors this week are aqua, pale yellow, tangerine, and gray, so I flipped through my stash of designer papers to make a completely paper pieced scene.  Oh my gosh, I'm in love with my card. . .can I say that? should I say that?  I think I just love these colors and the stamps and dies I paired them up with.

I used a set from Taylored Expressions called Ships Ahoy Petite Stamp & Die combo along with the various designer papers from different places.  I also used the Build a Scene - Mountain Tops dies as well as the Build a Scene - Swirly Clouds dies.  The caps of the waves were made with white craft ink and some white embossing powder.


Head on over the Color Throwdown blog to play along!  You could end up being a guest designer for them just by playing!

    So cool! I love the "foaming" details you added to the waves with embossing powder! Very clever!
