My Little Creative Escape: Color Throwdown542-Party

Hi, everyone! It's time for a new challenge! Barbara ishere with our colors for this week. Remember, we're using generic colors, so as long as you use the color values shown: coral pink, blue, green, and kraft you'll be good...the color police won't come after you--this is all about having fun! And, 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 CTD542, and please use #ctd542 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, so check 'em out to be sure. Importantly, though, 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.

Hello CTD fans! As much as I wanted to pull out one of the many gorgeous wreath stamps I own, I just had to color up this cutie-pie-party-monkey from the NEW Reverse Confetti Release. The stamp set is called Party Animal. I used the new Sweet Stripes for my background and created a festive shaker with the new See Through Tag Confetti Cut in Sand card stock.

I cut the word party from the Party & Celebrate Confetti Cuts three times from Premium Polar White card stock and then sponged on Coral ink onto one set of the letters for the perfect shade. I glued the letters together to create the dimension on my sentiment.

Here is a closer look at the adorable party monkey from the Party Animal stamp set. I colored him up with Copics and then used the Party Animal Confetti Cuts to cut him out. Easy, peasy! I love the fun colors of this sequin mix from Stampin' Up! I tied on some natural hemp twine and called this one done!
