Color Throwdown #835

I always love the inspiration photos over at Color Throwdown - #835 is no exception... I'd like to move into one of these 'painted ladies' wouldn't you?  


[Okay - maybe only if it came with a cleaning crew! lol]

Here's my 'all die-cut' Spring Print C&9th card using shades of their colors:


A bit of Diamond Stickles on their 'anthers' couldn't hurt!

I'm only sure that the green is Parsley from Concord & 9th - the 
yellow: Curry from The Stamp Market.  The duo of turquoise hues was among those cut ages
ago... probably also from The Stamp Market or Concord & 9th!

Your color choices couldn't be more perfect on this one! You know I STILL haven't played with this die set? It'll be a collector's item soon.

Michelle I love the colors they all look fantastic together and make the card so perfect. I love the big flower. Anybody would be so proud to receive this beautiful card from you.

So very pretty, Michele! The stairs that must be in those houses would be my undoing! But they sure are pretty. Happy weekend!

This looks so pretty cut from those colors, Michele! I especially like the turquoise hues in the leaves and the thin die cut sentiment. Wonderful card!

Vicki Dutcher said...

Awesome use of the colors!

Bonnie said...

This is a fabulous way to use these colors, Michele! I LOVE this BIG flower!

Wow, this is wonderful -- love the fun colors but the "puzzle" is fun and pretty too. I would like in one of those adorable houses, only if it was not in a big city, as I imagine it would be -- I'm kinda fond of space

Ha! I'm having lunch at one of those houses today. Almost exactly the same, but different colors. My friend owns all three and lives in the one in the middle. Just as striking is your card in these colors with the bold graphic flowers. Such a fabulous look! Love the dotty sparkly anthers. So cool, Michele!

Those colours work so well for your lovely die cut flower. the simple sentiment works really well too xx

I just got that die set. I hope my card with it looks half as good as this one does, Michele.

Those are some lovely tones of cardstock and make for a pretty card, great take on the inspo colors.
