Llama LOve CTD471

Occasionally, when you see something that inspires you,

 you know exactly what card you're going to make.

This is the case with the current Color Throwdown.

When I saw the lovely metallic colors, this card popped into my head.

For this card I use the new llama Delivery Stamp Set from Newton's Nook Design.

I started with craft paper, a die from my stash, and decided to reverse-engineer the card.

  Stamping my stamp on the craft paper, 

I used the colors in the challenge to color in my llama first.

Moving on to the background, I use the Starfield Stencil

from Newton's Nook Design with some Tarnished Brass Distress Paint.

 Although the color says its Brass it looks gold in the light or when photographed.

I did things a little different, I covered the stencil with paint and pressed paper on the stencil.

When I pulled the paper slowly from the stencil,

I discovered the cool distressed background it created.

I assembled all the pieces of the card onto some gray cardstock, added a sentiment, and I was done!

I am in love with the final look of the card,

and I hope that it encourages you to try something different.

Thanks for stopping, link to the Throwdown below.
