Color Throwdown Challenge #822

 

Hello everyone! Kelly Schirmer here as your host for this week's Color Throwdown challenge! 

The colors for this week:  green, red, and cream!  Nothing gets me like a cozy scene with traditional Christmas colors and a lovely pine tree!
 
Remember we just use generic colors (so any brand/type/whatever you have will work) and you can always feel free to add in neutrals (white/black/etc) to your creation. 

If you upload your creation to a public gallery, use the keyword CTD822, and use #CTD822 and #colorthrowdown on social media so we can find your gorgeous creations!  When linking up your creation using the linky tool below, be sure to link your specific post and not a general link to your blog.  All of the "rules" are on the rules page above, and you can always check there to be sure!

One last detail to remember, no digital designs, please! Only digital images that are printed off and colored will be allowed. Totally digital designs will be removed from the link up.

We can’t wait to see what you make!  Next Tuesday December 10th we’ll reveal a randomly-selected guest designer from all of the entries, and showcase some cards or projects that caught our attention. For now, here is some fabulous inspiration from the CTD team…

Color Throwdown Challenge #821

 

Hello crafty friends! It's Tammy here hosting this week's challenge. Our colors this week were not my choice.  LOL  I do not work well with blues!  But, since I rejoined the team recently, I'm hosting today's challenge in place of Amy R (I think?) who has stepped back for personal reasons.  So, I assume she chose these colors of yellow, green and blue, and we hope you will enjoy this combo! Remember, we use generic colors, so as long as you use the color values shown, you are all set! Feel free to incorporate any neutrals that you would like in your design.

If you upload your creation to a public gallery, please use the key words CTD821, and please use #ctd821 and #colorthrowdown on social media sites. Also, when linking up your card using the linky tool at the bottom of this post, please use a direct link to your specific post, not a generic link to your blog. All the rules are on the rules page up top, so check them out if you're unsure. No digital designs will be allowed - only digital images that are printed off and colored.   Be sure to check out some great inspiration from the talented design team below!  We can't wait to see what you create!
