It's week #31 of the Color Throwdown, and it's my turn again to chose the colors! Sometimes when I see a color combo I like, I go into the Notepad feature on my phone and put the colors there for future reference. So I noticed one day that this combo was in my notes, and decided to use it for the Throwdown. I don't know where the inspiration came from, but hope you'll like the colors, too! They'd be great for a more masculine card, which is what I did here!
This is Fergie-the-Frog from Stampendous, and I thought he'd look just fabulous in Kiwi Kiss with his giant lily pad! I've seen this lily pad idea on other cards, so decided to give it a try today! You can't tell from the photo, but I added some Angel Wings Shimmerz to the lily pad he's sitting on, too!
Check out all the challenge details on the Throwdown blog, and be sure to see some awesome samples from the rest of the team!
