Color Throwdown


Howdy y'all! It's time for another Color Hoedown...err...I mean Throwdown challenge and Bar has some awesome earthy colors for us this week. :-)


I decided to go with this PI cowboy image from MFT, so I could play with my Copics again.  I added a jute lasso and some die cut grass to ground the image.  The layout is for Karen Giron's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.

Remember, you don't have to use exact colors...just something close.  Be sure and label your project with CTD230 if you upload to a public gallery.
You'll need to link up on the Color Throwdown blog as well.  So...saddle up and get a move on...we'd love to see you play along with us!  OK... enough corny cowboy talk...here's what else I used:

STAMPS: PI Cowboy (MFT)
PAPER: Nottinghill pad by 7 Gypsies, Cajun Craze, Soft Suede, Vintage Cream, Scraps of green (? Bazzill).
INK: Cajun Craze, Memento Tuxedo Black, Marina Mist (sponging on Nestie)
ACCESSORIES: All dies are MFT Die-Namics (doily, star border, rounded banner, grass, star) with the exception of the circle Nestie; Jute twine, Copper brad, Corner chomper, Copics.

Check out the other design team members along with our guestie, Kim Hahn!
