Chocolate Makes It Better – Color Throwdown #74
Yeah! It’s time for the very first Color Throwdown of 2010!! Can you believe another year has come and gone??
We’re also celebrating because we have a brand new CTD designer!! She’s so cool and so talented and I bet you already know her….Kristin Bueter!! And for her initiation, we’ve asked her to start the new year off by hostessing her first Color Throwdown challenge.
You may have seen that she’s designing the beautiful digital papers for Lauren Meader’s new store, My Time Made Easy. Well, Lauren has generously donated 2 prizes, each consisting of a template and 2 of the new paper packs, for this week’s challenge. And all the design team members were given the paper to use in our creations.
The colors that Kristin chose are straight from her papers called Fluttering-by and Shutt-erfly.

I’ve chosen Our Craft Lounge’s Granny from Granny’s Truffles to grace this week’s Valentine themed card. Isn’t she just too cute? Lovin’ that chocolate! The wavy line background paper and the sweet gingham paper are both Kristin’s creations.
Be sure to check out all the designers’ cool creations here:
Barbara * Cathy * Danielle * Kristin
LeAnne * Tammy * Deb Horst (Guest Designer for December)

Heehee, this is cute. This could be me sitting with a plate of Christmas cookies…no, it could be me with a box of chocolates, too! Great details!!
This card really makes me smile!
I like the image, the sentiment and the overall composition of the card. I’ve got a few friends who would appreciate receiving this card!
Broni, your Granny is gorgeous!!! LOVE the way you used Kristin’s papers for the heart, and of course your coloring is FABULOUS! Awesome card!

too cute! I love her “chipmunk” cheeks! I’m going to get off track here….you were robbed!! I’m sorry but I did not agree w/the Christmas card choices of Paper Craft blog. If I enter that again I’ll throw a die cut on it & call it good!! I feel better now just getting that off my chest!! Feel free to delete this rant.
