Color Throwdown #414

Hi, all! It's Amy here as this week's hostess for Color Throwdown Challenge #414. The colors from this week's inspiration photo are grey, aqua and lime green, but keep in mind that the colors are generic and it's fine if you want to add in other neutrals.
 
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 CTD413 if you upload your project to an online gallery. You can use the keywords #ctd413 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.
