Play Date Cafe #82

Yay, it’s Thursday!  I LOVE Thursdays, I get time to play in my studio and it’s Play Date Cafe day too!
This week I got to create the colours for the challenge.  I’m really a novice at this but I’ve enjoyed playing

I made this CAS card.  I had lots of different ideas for these colours and it really took me days to decide what to make!  Then I woke up and decided that actually I needed to use my Warm Happiness teacup dies to make a card, I don't use them enough!

I showed Ian my card and he said, ‘Well that’s not very lady like, where are the saucers?’!! He’s so funny!

  7. Ruby, your cups die is fantastic. No matter that there aren't saucers. I often don't even bother with a saucer. And I really do love this color combo.
