Woot Woot- Color Throwdown!!

Another Happy Wednesday morn'!! I've been keeping a secret-- WOOT WOOT!! Exciting News!! Today is the first day for me as a DT member for THE Color Throwdown!! Yes, I'm thrilled I tell ya!! Joining me is the fabulous Melody Rupple from A Paper Melody {we're newbies together}!!

And, here's the fabulous colors that Bar chose for use this week...

Aren't those colors wonderful and the beach in the background.... makes me happy!!

 

Here's my card...

I haven't watercolored any images in forever so, when I saw Bar's colors and the jars- I decided I wanted to use this Flourishes image and practice a little watercoloring. Stamped the image in crumbcake and heat embossed with clear. Colored the images with and then shaded with SU pastel chalk. Finally purchased Lil Inkers stitched rectangles {yeah, I know, I'm probably one of the few who just got these}. Sentiment is from Verve's Wordy Birds.
