throwing me in the way back machine



Hello! So when I saw Kristina's color challenge this week I was shocked to see the same colors I just used in my previous card - whisper white, bashful blue, pumpkin pie, and brilliant blue - dare I say 'great minds'? Ha! It was difficult for me to come up with another card though, but this one will do. I like how simple it is and I can't believe I didn't add a single ribbon or rhinestone or girly thing! I really like these colors together - maybe it's because it brings back good memories of Broncos parties my family went to when I was a kid - all the m&m's, chips, cheetos, orange soda and really loud grown-ups yelling at the tv. I'm a huge Denver Broncos fan (I think you have to be if you are a Colorado native) and back in the Orange Crush days I had my bright orange shirt and did my parents proud. Of course I was only about 6, so what did I know?! Anyway - enjoy!
