CTD#236 - Yellow Roses

 Hi there!  Today it's my turn to play hostess over at the Color Throwdown blog and since spring is right around the corner (or at least I hope it is), I chose this pretty inspiration photo of some cheerful pansies and pulled the colors from the photo for our challenge this week.
For my card I not only used this week's CTD colors but the Retro Sketches Challenge #56 from last week which was designed by none other than my talented Color Throwdown and Sweet Sunday Sketch team mate Lori Tecler.  I also used the Papertrey Ink stamp sets Rosie Posie and Happy for You.
Be sure to visit the other Color Throwdown design team members for more inspiration using this week's color challenge!

Hi Lynn! This was a hard color combination, and your card is simply gorgeous! You have such a way with color, and with combining lots of elements into a perfect card. :-)
