A Paper Melody: CTD272 - Life's a Game

Thanks for stopping by for Color Throwdown 272! This week is Broni's turn to host the challenge and look at this beautiful color combo she chose for us to work with !

This will be our last challenge for 2013. We will be taking a little break for the Holidays.

I used the color challenge to create this 12 x 12 scrapbook page.

I started with a 12 x 12 page of dark grey card stock, and then created my own patterned paper with the Mini Chicken Wire Stencil, a sponge, and MFT Inks, in Grapesicle, Sour Apple, and Sno Cone.

I used the Pierced Traditional Tag STAX Die-namics for the tag and the sentiment is from the Document It - Bingo Stamp Set.

The bingo card is created with the Document It - Bingo Stamp set, stamped with Steel Grey Ink, and cut out with the Insert It - 3x4 Insert Die-namics. The sentiment is also from the stamp set and cut out and layered with the Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics.

Here I stamped another sentiment from the Document It - Bingo Stamp set, and "Shine Brightly" from the On the Line Stamp Set.

The border is cut with the Double Dot Border Die-namcis from MFT Felt in Whip Cream. I added three MFT Buttons.

Hope you have a chance to play along!
