The Play Date Cafe #139


Welcome to this week The Play Date Cafe color challenge. The colors are NUDE, GOLD, & SILVER. It's a super fun color combo this week and I can't wait to see what original designs everyone comes up with. It's even perfect if you're thinking about Christmas in July. I hope you can join us this week. 


For my card I used this beautiful shiny gold paper that I had a scrap of left over from another project. I found these super cute Elizabeth Crafts stickers at my LSS and picked them up in anticipation of this card. I took one of the scrap pieces of gold paper and put the stickers randomly all over the panel.  Then I cut the panel into this smaller rectangle and outline with my "nude" color card stock and adhered it to the main card with foam tape. The sticker sentiment is from EAD Designs.

We have a guest designer this week - Amy Tsuruta. Be sure to check out her fabulous creation leave her some love.


One lucky winner will win an awesome prize from our sponsor this week - My Creative Classroom. So join us for a this weeks great challenge!!

CCC July Guest Designer!!

Today I have some exciting news. I've been asked to be the guest designer at the Christmas Card Challenges Blog! I love getting my Christmas cards done early and this is the perfect blog for that. And, I'm lucky because the challenges start on Sundays and there are 5 Sundays in July. So, today I'm starting off Christmas in July. The challenge this week is to make a monochromatic card. I thought my main color would be purple. By the time I added the silver accents it may not be that monochromatic anymore, but I really like how it turned out. Probably because I love purple, silver, and snowmen!! Come join us at the CCC blog and get a head start on your Christmas cards!
