Today I have a card to share with you for our Play Date Cafe challenge. Our colours are purple, blue and white this week. I wanted to make a little card which is about 4.75in x 3.75in. I used some very old purple paper from my stash of papers (trying to work my way through them!), with a Martha Stewart die cut doily and butterfly border punch. I also used my new Enamel Accents for the centres of the flowers which I'd layered in alternate purple and blue. If you haven't tried this enamel you must, it's so much fun! All tied up with ribbon, and card finished!
Our sponsors this week, Lizzie Ann Designs, very kindly gave us some gorgeous stamps to play with. I got this fab set, Bloomin' Doodles!
I do love my flowers but particularly the flower on the right of my card becaust it's a little like my logo :o) Lizzie Anne Designs are offering up a fantastic prize worth $39.95!! I think these flowers would look great on tags or even on wrapping paper stamped as your own design.
So pop on over to the rest of my teamies to see what they've created with the colours, there are lots of beauties to see!

We also have Taylor Usry guest designing with us this week. You may even spot some of her teamies playing along too :o) Her work is gorgeous, especially her more recent life size cupcake, now that's the kind of cupcake I'd like to get in the post!
