Color Throwdown Challenge Offering


I am just squeaking this challenge in under the deadline,
but I am glad to do so.
I always enjoy playing The Color Throwdown.
I used a variety of patterned papers on this card including Anna Griffin, Making Memories (from that new Autumn Collection I showed you last weekend) and retired SU. The base cardstock is an artichoke green, but it's hard to tell in the photo.

I know this is a quick post, but my sweet Paul just came in from work and it's dinner time, so need to run. I am looking forward to sharing sneak peeks of the gift tag swap that is going out this later in the week. Make sure you stop by tomorrow.
Happy Labor Day Weekend
!
