Color Throwdown #458

Hello everyone! It's Wednesday so that means a new Color Throwdown Challenge is happening!   Lynn Put is our hostess this week and has chosen this great set of primary colors with a fun photo that inspired me to go with a school theme.

I wanted to say a big THANKS to Sheri Gilson for guesting with us this month!  Her cards were all fabulous and it's hard to think this is the last week in the month already.  Be sure to stop by her blog and check out her latest card!

Congratulations to Michele Greenwood of Whimsical Creations who is our guest star stamper this week!

So...here is my take using the red, yellow and green color palette...

The layout is the current sketch by Donna Mikasa for the CAS(E)

This Sketch Challenge.


I'll get right to my enabler's list...
STAMPS: Class Act by Reverse Confetti.
PAPER: Lime Green (Reverse Confetti), Licorice (MFT), White (PTI), Patterned paper by Recollections.
INK: Rose, Lime Green, Sand (Reverse Confetti); Versamark; Memento Tuxedo Black.
DIES: Class Act and Love Note (Reverse Confetti), Stitched Fishtail Flags STAX (MFT).
MISC: Washi tape and Tim Holtz stapler.


I thought my card would be a great addition to present a teacher gift.  A simple and fun idea is creating a Rolo pencil!  I made these several years ago and didn't have time to create a new one, so will add my old photo along with a link to the YouTube video instructions HERE. 

We'd love to have you joining us in the challenge this week!
