Color Throwdown #75


Are ya' ready for another Throwdown? LeAnne is the hostess this week, and honestly... she's got a doozie for you! LOL My first thought was "what is she thinking?" when I saw these colors but trust me... give it a try and you'll LOVE it! I've had a really trying day and almost didn't even make a card for today's challenge but now that it's done, I'm so glad I did. So c'mon... it IS a challenge after all, so even if it's outside your comfort zone, give it a try! Stop by the Throwdown blog for complete details!

For my card, I chose to use a sweet Magnolia image and Mercy's Tuesday sketch challenge #56. I'm always so happy when Mercy has a great sketch posted on Tuesday that I can use for my Throwdown card!
See what my Throwdown sisters have created for today's challenge too, and I'm sure you'll begin to love this color combo even more!

Tammy, I'm so excited to see there's a stamp store in NE Ohio! I'm from Hartville, OH and just visited family over Thanksgiving. I'll have to Mapquest your store and check it out next time I travel to the Buckeye state.
