Happy New Year!!
I hope all of you had a wonderful holiday celebrating with family and friends. Today the Color Throwdown design team is back with our first color challenge of the year and we hope you’ll join us.
After seeing the inspiration photo for this week’s challenge, I decided to go with something wintery and pulled out the Lawn Fawn stamp set Thanks a Latte along with the coordinating Thanks a Latte dies. I also used the cute little birds from the Winter Sparrows set with the Winter Sparrows dies.
To create my card, I started out with a square card base then added some red gingham Doodlebug Designs paper along the bottom. Next I die cut a square of Perfectly Plaid Fall Lawn Fawn paper using a stitched square die and adhered that to my card base with foam tape. After that I used the Stitched Scalloped Circle Frames dies to die cut a white card stock circle and the Simple Wavy Banners dies and Winter Wavy Sayings stamp set for my sentiment. I stamped all of my images and colored them using Copic markers then die cut them out. I popped up the cocoa mug and two sparrows with foam tape and added a few die cut snowflakes that I die cut using the Mini Snowflakes dies. To finish off my card, I added some iridescent glitter on the snowflakes and each of the birds.
