PDCC 123

Happy Thursday again!!  Phew it’s been a full on one this week!

It’s time for another Play Date Cafe challenge and we have one bright beauty of a colour palette for you this week, I love it!  My only problem is that when we were picking our choice of stamps from our fabulous sponsors, DRS, I didn’t take into account that we were using these colours and I chose a ‘With Sympathy’ stamp to go with my butterfly frame!!! Uh oh!!!

Anyway, this is what I have ended up with.  Hope you like it!

Personally I’d love a cheery card like this for this kind of occasion, but I do know I’m the exception to the rule lol.  Anyway, if you can imagine this as a birthday card instead then that might help you like it a bit more!!  I actually LOVE this little DRS butterfly frame and the sentiment font is just so very pretty!  Thank you DRS for such beautiful stamps!! :) 

Here’s our GORGEOUS inspiration pic….

I’m not sure if it’s clear in my photo but the flowers in the centre of the frame are just cut out of the background paper with some glossy accents added and pop dotted, adding a gem to the centre to finish.  I coloured the little butterflies with my Copic markers.

That’s it from me today.  Pop by the main Play Date Cafe blog for all of the details and to get some fabulous inspiration from the rest of the team.

Have a great Thursday!

  8. You did so great with the combination of stamps you chose! This color combo wasn't even up in our gallery, when we picked our stamps. So, rock on, girl, because your "uh oh" turned out beautifully ;)!
