Splashes of Watercolor

~

Well, everyone, this is our last Color Throwdown challenge of 2009.  But don’t worry, we’ll definitely be back after the holidays with more fun and challenges for you!

The super fun and talented Tammy is our hostess this week and  she’s laid down a challenge of great fun colors!

Our sponsor this week is There She Goes and they sent the design team some super fun images to work with!  I got the Birdie Wishes set (09-0083) which is a set of 29 stamps!!  It’s adorable and not just for Christmas.  There’s also  a birthday sentiment as well as a couple of more.  Just darling!

I did, however,  create another Christmas card.  Still plugging away at those!

Well, fun images deserve fun papers, so I pulled out an assortment of My Mind’s Eye papers from eclectic Paperie and just had the best time creating!

The little bird was embossed on the polka dot paper using Versamark and real red ink.  I used the Sizzlits Little Leaves die for the branches and the Bigz Top Note die as a background to the main layer which was cut with the Labels Four Nestabilities die.  The bird, his wing, the ornament, and the sentiment oval are all popped up on foam tape.

Please visit the Color Throwdown blog for all the challenge details and play along with us!  We always enjoy seeing your fantastic creations!  Then head to the DT’s blogs for some wonderful inspiration:
