My Little Creative Escape: Color Throwdown 629 -birthday bear

Good Morning, Happy Wednesday!! Vickie is our hostess for this week's Color Throwdown Challenge #629! I chose some bright colors this week and with Valentine's Day in mind - two weeks in a row :-) I hope you'll like creating with the colors pink, red, black, and white for this week's challenge. We are using generic colors, so as long as you use the color values shown, you are all set! As always, please feel free to incorporate any neutrals that you need in your design as well!

If you upload to a public gallery, please use the keyword CTD629, and please use #ctd629 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 are 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.

I pulled out one of my favorite Reverse Confetti sets, Chalk it Up, to make this adorable birthday card for my dad.

I used the Split Circles Cover Panel in Midnight for my background. It was too much black for me, so I added a 2.5 in x 4.25 Premium Polar White panel along the bottom third of the card. I added some tufts of grass with my copics and got the pink color in from the challenge with some hand-done confetti dots. I love that the sentiment is added to the sign.
