Color Throwdown #36


I can't believe I actually did another Color Throwdown Challenge (orange, turquoise and pink)...that's two in a row!! Don't know why I had such a difficult time with this one. But once again I pulled out a set that hasn't seen any ink, Treasure Life by Close to My Heart. I stamped the flower twice, once in Pretty in pink and again in Rose red. I used my spritzer tool and a gray marker to add splatter. I blue sponged around the edges too. I had the pomegranate and orange embossed layer in my stash, so why not use them!! I finally purchased the Martha Stewart butterfly punch and love it! The wings are bent up and I love the addition of the tiny pearls. A few mini brads and lovely ribbon and my card is done. My corner rounder punch broke in the middle of this card!!! I really had to work at getting all the corners punched. Time to order a new one.
Still no word on my 4th degree testing results!!! I'm not a very patient person to begin with and this is absolutely killing me!!!!! I keep thinking, every day, "could this be the day?!"

This is a beautiful card. I love the colors you chose and how you shadowed the flowers with the two shades of pink.
