Who doesn't love a red, white, and blue Valentine? How do you like the split mat on the main image?
Well, that was it for the Flashback part, so here is today's all-new creation:
As soon as I saw this week's Color Throwdown I knew I wanted to use it with these flowers from Bold Basics. I really wanted to use the bright and fun (and retired) Summer Sun, and I was looking through my old ribbon for some black grosgrain when I found the yellow and I thought PERFECT! The greeting is from A Greeting for All Reasons, which just seemed to match the tone of the Bold Basics blossoms.
So here's the challenge swatch from the Color Throwdown:
Fun and cute. I kinda wish I had used a pattern on the bottom of my card that had more black in it, but I liked the houndstooth so whatever. Anyway, that's it for me this week, so I'd better get my last run in and then maybe I can treat myself to the movies this afternoon :) Cheers, peeps!
Supplies, last card only:
Stamps: Bold Basics, A Greeting for All Reasons
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Summer Sun
Paper: Whisper White, Night & Day DSP
Accessories: Maize grosgrain, corner rounder punch

I really like that houndstooth paper! Adam knows what houndstooth is, too! And Dad does as his first car had that covering the seats. I love the yellow, black and gray. Great job!
Fabulous use of the throwdown colors in this beautiful card! The houndstooth is so perfect in black and white. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Color Throwdown!
How pretty, Christy....love how you used the houndstooth and your sentiment tucked in between the flowers is an awesome design element!!! Thanks for joining us for the Color Throwdown Challenge!!!!
