i miss you (color throwdown)

Hi everyone.  It’s time for another Color Throwdown!  This week Broni chose a bright palette of red, fuchsia, black and white.

This little racoon critter from Mama Elephant‘s Three Amigos was calling my name. I decided to go with black and white with just a bit of red and fuchsia.

After stamping onto X-Press It Blending Card and coloring with Copic markers, I stamped the sentiment, highlighting the word “miss” then added three Tiny Hearts (by Paper Smooches), die-cut from red and bright pink card stock then coated with Glossy Accents. To add just a bit more detail, I dotted over the raccoon’s eyes with a black glossy pen.

I used 1/8″ X-Press It double-sided tape to adhere the striped panel and Kool Tak clear foam squares to adhere the raccoon.

You can find all details  for this week’s challenge on the Color Throwdown blog where you can also link your project.  I hope you’ll play along!
