Color Throwdown #461


Hello everyone! Amy Rysavy here as your host for week's Color Throwdown challenge! This gorgeous picture of leaves is the inspiration for this week's challenge. I just LOVE fall so it's just perfect for this time of year! The colours for this week are to use purple, orange, yellow and green. 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 make your creation pop!

If you upload your creation to a public gallery, please use the keyword CTD461, and please use #CTD461 and #colorthrowdown on social media so we can find your gorgeous creations!  When linking up your creation using the linky tool below, please be sure to link your specific post, not a general link to your blog.  All of the "rules" are in the right sidebar, and you can always check there to be sure!

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.

Here's some fabulous inspiration from the rest of the CTD team to get y'all started!

Color Throwdown #460



Hi, everyone!  It’s Wanda and it’s my turn as hostess for this week’s Color Throwdown challenge.  The colors from this week's inspiration photo are navy, green and white.  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 CTD460 if you upload your project to an online gallery. You can use the keywords #ctd460 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 to get you started.  I'm looking forward to seeing what you create with these fun colors!

Wanda Cullen - Cullen-ary Creations


Barbara Anders - Paper Pursuits

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!
