Color Throwdown



Hi everyone! You're going to love this week's great Color Throwdown Challenge! Check out hostess Joan's classy colors! I knew right away I wanted to use the unique sketch from last week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge...LOVE this one!  I layered up these Gerbera Daisy Die-Namics from MFT and thought this sunny sentiment (MFT Sunflower WTG stamp set) fit perfectly with the pop of yellow against the black and white papers!


A couple of helpful tidbits...
1.  One of the many things I love about my MISTI is that I can stamp a sentiment twice to get really vivid black inking! 
2.  Each layer of the flower has a piece of foam tape to give it a bit of dimension.
 
Congrats to our talented guest star stamper - Simonne Clay - and be sure to check out her amazing card  HERE!
