Color Throwdown #376-Better With You

Welcome back for this week's Color Throwdown Challenge. I think you will love what Jodi has picked for us this week.   Here are The Color Throwdown, we are all about generic colors, so this week we are working with aqua, pink, kraft and white!  I sure hope you love this combination as much as I do! Isn't the inspiration photo just yummy!

I had water color fun today and used some new to me stamps and dies. I have been seeing lots of pretty things created with Concord & 9th products floating around Instagram lately. So when I saw that Vanessa was going to carry them in the Butterfly Reflections Ink store, I snagged them up quick.

 I just so happened to have some scraps of water colored paper sitting on my desk in the pink and aqua color, so I cut out the By Your Side Birds from them. I also ran the die through my machine with some kraft card stock, too. I cut apart the birds and added them to the top of the kraft layer. 

I then cut out more water color card stock with the Rounded Rectangle LID die. I used some distress inks to create a pretty color wash for my background in aqua (broken china and peacock feathers) and pinks (spun sugar with a touch of picked raspberry). 

I just LOVE, love the font from By Your Side. Once my water color panel was dry I stamped the sentiment with some MFT Black Hybrid ink. I love using my MISTI to ink it up twice for a nice crisp image. A few sequins, a wood veneer heart, and a kraft burlap bow finished this beauty off.
