I was thrilled to be chosen as the Featured Stamper [by random.org] for CTD838 which means I am the lucky guest here today for the Color Throwdown #840!
When I saw their inspiration photo, I knew that new set from Concord & 9th called Cherry Nice! was going to work perfectly.
Okay, okay. I know those are apples and am very excited for apple season BUT
when I visited Seattle years ago, I fell in love with Rainier cherries which are the loveliest colors and that is exactly why I reached for those C&9th Cherries!
Tell me what you think...
Aren't they fun?? I cut all the pieces out of Fabriano hot press
watercolor paper and used Distress inks to color and splatter them.
I loved the photos I found on the internet for them - but don't think
for a moment I like them MORE than I like our wonderful Michigan Sweet Cherries!
After putting the pieces together, I created a deep yellow card cover
that has been debossed using an old Reverse Confetti cover plate.
I hope you'll join us for CTD840 and have just the red, yellow, and green things that make you want to play along!
