Color Throwdown #699

Good Wednesday morning!!! Vickie here and I’m your hostess for this week's Color Throwdown Challenge #699! This week we are playing with blue, purple, and white. I am definitely in the spring/summer mood and I hope they inspire you to create something special. We are using generic colors, so as long as you use the color values shown, you are all set! As always, please feel free to incorporate any neutrals that you need in your design as well!

If you upload to a public gallery, please use the keyword CTD699, and please use #ctd699 and #colorthrowdown on social media sites. Also, when linking up your card using the linky tool at the bottom of the post, please link to your specific post, not a generic link to your blog. All of the "rules" are in the right sidebar, please check them out if you are in doubt! One last detail to remember, no digital designs - only digital images that are printed off and colored will be allowed. Totally digital designs will be removed from the link up.

Check out the beautiful creations from the team this week! They are sure to inspire you, they always inspire me!! Have fun creating, we cannot wait to see what you come up with using these colors!

Color Throwdown #697

Hi, everyone! It’s Lori and it’s my turn as hostess for this week’s Color Throwdown challenge. The colors from this week's inspiration photo are orange, pink and aqua. The colors are generic and it's fine if you want to add in other neutrals along with the challenge colors.

Once you’ve finished your card or other paper crafting project using the colors, add a direct link to your creation using the linky tool at the bottom of the post. And, don’t forget to use the keyword CTD697 if you upload your project to an online gallery. You can use the keywords #ctd697 and #colorthrowdown if you upload to any social media sites (yes, we're on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter!). All of the challenge "rules" are in the right sidebar in case you have any questions. One last detail to remember, no digital designs. Only digital images that are printed off and colored will be allowed. Totally digital designs will be removed from the link up.

Before you head off to create, here’s some inspiration from our talented team and this week's guest star stamper to get you started. The CTD team is looking forward to seeing what you create with these colors!

Challenge Rules

The Color Throwdown challenges are intended to be fun for everyone. Please use whatever colors you have on hand that are most similar. Combining challenges is fine, but entries must be a new creation, and the colors of your creation should primarily consist of only the Throwdown colors. Neutrals (black, gray, white, Kraft, cream, brown) are free, so use them as you need to complete your design; however, if they are included in the challenge palette they must be used in your creation. We also appreciate a link back to The Color Throwdown site whether you are posting to your blog or another forum. A direct link to your card via Inlinkz is required. General blog links or cards not following the challenge colors could be deleted. No digital projects--only digital images that are printed off and colored will be allowed. Links must be in place by 6:00 p.m. EST on the Monday immediately following each week's challenge to be considered for Featured Stamper. Thank you for playing!
