Taking down your Lowe's card which is at probably 60% or so utilization will help some.  Perhaps you'd pick up 10 points from getting it back down to an ideal spot.  Outside of that, nothing but time is going to help. 


This is great advice, but I do have one other suggestion.  You could always ask for a CLI on your Lowe's card to help push the utilization lower.  I have a low interest BT on my Discover card and was at 70% utilization on it after my last payement, but I asked for a CLI which dropped it to under 50%, so I'm sure I'll see a 4 or 5 point bump in the coming weeks.
