I am a bit of a fan of colour challenges as I find they really focus the mind (and my mind needs a lot of focus these days -too much time wasted I fear!) Last week I found the Colour Throwdown challenge and I'm back for another go with these fantastic colours. I think the photo also inspired me to think about home/houses.
I used aTim Holtz die cut which has only had one outing before today. It's a sweet row of little houses, just perfect for paper piecing with various colours.
I sponged the card blank with Luck Limeade ink and cut the base row of houses from the same colour cardstock. I added some houses, 2 in Marina Mist, 1 in Pacific Point, and 2 in the So Saffron, adding two stick on brads and some punched flowers. The sentiment is from a freebie magazine set, which is quite old now. Want a closer look?
I don't use this long, thin card format very often, but I think it goes with this die cut very well. I will be showing you another 'long thin one' later in the week!
Adorable row of houses and perfect to use the long card format!! Thxs for joining us at CTD!!
