ColorLab6

Wow, it's Thursday again!!! My boys have one week of school under their belt already. Hard to believe!!!  Did you grab your lab coat?? Time to spend some time cooking up something in the ColorLab!! Here are the colors for this week:


Cherry Cobbler, Almost Amethyst, Certainly Celery and Old Olive. Almost Amethyst is retired, and I put away all those colors, so I subbed in Perfect Plum. Here is what I came up with:


I used another set from the upcoming Holiday Mini Catalog, Paisley Prints. Card base is Cherry Cobbler. Background layer Old Olive behind Very Vanilla. I inked the leaf from the set, first in Perfect Plum and rolled the edges in Cherry Cobbler. I repeated that with Certainly Celery and Old Olive. As long as you're doing the light color first, then rolling on the darker, it won't do any damage to your ink pad. I alternated my way across the center, left bottom to top right. Then filled in the edges. A Certainly Celery grosgrain ribbon is attached across two corners, with Metallic brads for accent. The center has a Decorative Label punch in Perfect Plum behind a Very Vanilla wide oval that was stamped with "Thinking of You" from Sincere Salutation. I stamped another leaf there in Perfect Plum and Cherry Cobbler after stamping it off once.

That's it for me today! Thanks for stopping by here, won't you stop by the Lab and try the challenge?
