The Play Date Cafe #157


It's time for a new color challenge at The Play Date Cafe! I love purples and I think this week includes the most shades of purple I've ever seen in a PDC Challenge!! This weeks colors are Plum, Fuchsia, and Wisteria. I don't have a lot of patterned paper in these colors, so I went to my stash of Stampin' Up colors and ended up using Perfect Plum, Elegant Eggplant and Rich Razzleberry. I also used a texture plate from PTI on the white card stock. Then, I did something I rarely do, I pulled out the Cricut. I made this cute butterfly that I got from a cartridge called A Walk in My Garden. It was so big, I just left off the sentiment so I could use it for almost any occasion. I really hope you are as excited about these colors as I am and that you will join us this week. I can't wait to see what you come up with using these fun and different colors!



Our sponsor this week is Simon Says Stamp.
