Color Throwdown 177

Hi everyone and welcome to another Color Throwdown Challenge! This week Kerri has some fabulous colors for us!  Check out this great inspiration picture with these yummy colors!

 My card uses Shannon Teubner's CAS layout for the week 4 Viva la Verve sketch challenge on SCS.
Ta da...here's my clean and simple creation...
The butterfly is Exotic Butterfly Medium #1 from Cheery Lynn Designs and the Vintage Floral border punch is by Martha Stewart.  I embossed the black strip using a Cuttlebug floral design - hard to see in the photo.  The sweet little hello sentiment is a freebie that came with my last Verve order...so adorable in this great font!

Not to worry...if you don't have the exact colors please feel free to substitute colors that are close! Make a card or paper crafted project and post it to your blog. Then use the direct link from your blog and link it to the Color Throwdown blog using the linky tool. If you post to an online gallery please add CTD177 to the keywords.  For more inspiration, you'll want to check out the other design team members' creations HERE... and we are welcoming a guest designer for February...the talented Jenny Peterson!  Hope you can join us...can't wait to see what you create!
