Warm Wishes - CTD513

Hello there! It’s time for this week’s Color Throwdown Challenge. Before I get to my challenge card, I’d like to welcome this month’s talented guest designer, Birgit Edblom.

 For my card, I used the new Lawn Fawn stamp set Thanks a Latte along with the coordinating Thanks a Latte dies. I started out with a white card base, then added a piece of green plaid paper from the new LF Knit Picky fall paper pack which I die cut using the Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables die. Next I added a horizontal strip of some enchanted evening retired designer paper and die cut some white cardstock using the Stitched Mini Scallop Square Stax. Once that was done I stamped my images and colored them with Copic markers then die cut them out (I stamped the spoon from the Love You a Latte set). Before I adhered my images to the scalloped square, I added a light shadow using a T1 gray Copic marker. I popped up the mug and scalloped square using foam tape. Then I used an Essential Fishtail Sentiment Strip die and stamped my sentiment. To give my card more of a winter look, I used the Mini Snowflakes dies and some of the new Sparkle Cardstock Pixie Dust.
