It's Wednesday, and that means it's time again for another Color Throwdown! Stop by the Throwdown blog for all the details. This week it was my turn to pick our colors, and since I just got this yummy new Nonsense paper from We R Memory Keepers, I chose my colors from that!
Have I mentioned that I'm addicted to my new Chichiboulie stamps from Stamping Bella? I did? You want me to shut up about them? OK, but I'm still gonna' use them! Isn't Eloise Greengrass the cutest? I made my card for another friend of mine who's going through a rough time. I hope it cheers her up and brightens her day!
I added some glitter to her wings with a Quickie glue pen, then added some serious sparkle to her pretty dress with some Angel Wings Shimmerz paint! I hate to part with her, she's so darn cute but I know ****** could sure use a smile right now, so she's off in the mail tomorrow! (Name omitted 'cause I know she'll see this!)
Check out the samples from the Throwdown team by visiting their blogs too, please!

I was a little thrown by these colors but your card has inspired me to try it. If something that cute can be made it's worth a shot :)
