Color Throwdown 464-Happy Birthday Tim

Hi, everyone!  Amy our challenge hostess this week with a brand new set of colors  - orange, taupe and black. Remember, we're using generic colors, so as long as you use the color values shown, you're in good company! As always, feel free to incorporate any other neutrals you need in your design, as well.

If you upload to a public gallery, please use the key words CTD464, and please use #ctd464 and #colorthrowdown on social media sites. Also, when linking up your card using the linky tool at the bottom of the post, please link to your specific post, not a generic link to your blog--all of the "rules" are in the right sidebar, please check them out if you're in doubt. One last detail to remember -  no digital designs--only digital images that are printed off and colored will be allowed. Totally digital designs will be removed from the link up. 

My card this week is a special one as it was created for my husband. Today is a BIG birthday for him and while he never wants anyone to make a fuss over him, I am giving him a shout out here because he is so worth it. 

 I used the Sentiments Essentials stamp set in midnight ink layered over a vellum circular window. The Sentiments Essential Confetti Cuts make it easy to create a fun focal point with your words.  I used the Fa La La Circle Confetti Cuts to cut it out and frame it up in Sand card stock. 


Behind the vellum, you'll notice an orange distress ink water colored background. I also added some sequins and made a flat shaker card. I added some orange twine and Sand Leafy Confetti Cuts. I layered it onto a sheet of the Every Little Bit paper pack. 



For more inspiration, check out the other design team members' creations below, and get inky! We can't wait to see what you come up with this week.
