The Play Date Cafe Challenge PDCC #24

Another round with The Play Date Cafe.  I am so enjoying the challenge each week not only is it wonderful eye candy but the colors have been wonderful!  This week's colors are yummy and I was just playing around with this same color scheme yesterday.  This week's Creativity Challenge was brought to us by Mona Pendleton from the design team.

As I was saying I was playing around with these colors yesterday and actually had something kind of put together already except I had been using white instead of cream.  So I changed out a few things and came up with this card this morning.  I like it - a bit different for me since I normally use my cricut in some fashion.  Of course, isn't that why we do these challenges to inspire us to use a new and different technique.   Thank you for all you do to inspire either thru the weekly challenge or your kind comments. Thank you Design Team!


I used DCWV/ Brights and PP I found in my scraps.  I embossed both papers added a stamped sentiment from PTI in plum pudding.  Cut a piece of  purple toile wrapped a lavender ribbon around it and hung an earring charm with a piece of purple floss.  It's really hard to see but the light lavender paper  as a floral background on it that matches to the embossing I did on the dark purple.
