It's Wednesday again so it's time for another Throwdown! This week its Cathy's turn to choose our colors, and she picked such a pretty combo! You can really do a lot with these colors, so c'mon and show us your stuff! Upload your creation to your blog, or to any online gallery such as Paper Craft Planet, then be sure to place a direct link to your creation through Mr. Linky on the Throwdown blog! Remember, if you don't have the exact color specified just use whatever you have that's similar. We're not picky about it, but just want everyone to have fun!
For my card, I chose to use this pretty yellow designer paper that my friend Anita just gave me from Stampin' Up! and I paired it with this pretty flower stamp from Penny Black.
Be sure to check out these awesome designs for inspiration from the other Throwdown team members!

We're off in the wee hours of the morning today to take Anne to the airport for her return flight home! Doesn't it seem like just a few days ago when I shared the news of her arrival with you all? The past month really flew by! Please join us in praying for her safe return to Germany!
Have a great day!
P.S. My good friend Barbara Anders continues to excel each week in the My Favorite Things Stamping Idol contest, and her entry for this week is superb! Be sure to check it out here, then go vote for her here! Thanks!
