Well, folks, it's time for the latest edition of the Color Throwdown challenge. This week will be a little different. Not only can you play along in the challenge, but you can also participate in adding a little sunshine to a fellow crafter's life.
We're dedicating this week's Color Throwdown to Katie Renz. I don't know if you've heard her story yet, but Tammy can fill you in on all the details and let you know what you can do to help at the Color Throwdown blog.
The design team is going to be sending all of the cards we make to Katie, and we'd like to invite you to do the same. And there will be prizes for some lucky participants!
Here are the colors that I chose this week:

Now here's the card that I made to send to Katie, using the Mat Stack 2 collection from Papertrey Ink.

I just went with a clean and simple style this week. I hope she likes it!
Also, I'm giving a small prize to one random participant this week. This will be what you'll win if you're one of the lucky ones chosen:

Please try to make a special effort to play along with us this week. All the details are on the Color Throwdown blog.
