It's Wednesday and that means it's Color Throwdown Challenge time.
Check out these great summertime colors by Barbara!
I knew I wanted to use this DP from the Beach Cottage pad by Creative Imaginations for my beach-themed card...
I ended up using a hodgepodge of stamp sets with the sailboat and shells from SU and the flag outline and sentiment by Verve. I sponged Soft Sky and Real Red ink on the oval, but it's so light that it doesn't show up well in the photo. :-( The layout is using this week's Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge.
We hope you will play along with us and if you don't have the exact colors...no worries...you can choose a similar color. For more inspiration, you'll want to see what the design team and our guest designer, Kittie, have created by checking out the Color Throwdown blog HERE!

PAPER: Beach Cottage DP by Creative Imaginations, Poppy Parade, Kraft, Soft Sky

ACCESSORIES: Oval Nesties, Chevron Die-Namics by MFT, Ribbon banner die by Verve.
