Color Throwdown #250 and giveaways!

cdt250kate Today The Color Throwdown challenge blog is celebrating its 5th anniversary with its 250th challenge and IHP is co-sponsoring this milestone by donating a $25 gift certificate.  Play along for your chance to be entered to win.  Details are on CTD blog.  Colors are equivalents of SU's Melon Mambo, Bermuda Bay, Kraft, and So Saffron.  SU! colors aren't required even though those are the color names they use for challenges--just use what you have that's close to the challenge colors.

For my card I used Memento inks: Rose Bud, Bahama Blue, Desert Sand and Toffee Crunch from the Dew Drop Collections. 

I used this flip flop template.  I stamped the large and small flowers from Paper Smooches Get Outta Town in the various inks and then added some magenta shimmer ribbon and some KaiserCraft bling.  Finally I stamped the Happy Birthday from Sentiment Sampler in Palette New Canvas.  I attached the ribbon everything using my favorite Dimensional Dots

I sure hope you'll play along.  There's some great prizes up for grabs!  Thanks for stopping by today!
