The Play Date Cafe Challenge # 183

  Hello and welcome to The Play Date Cafe! This week we have a bold, and beautiful color  story for you to play with!


                                          Navy...School Bus...Emerald

       We also have a wonderful sponsor this week: Elizabeth Mindemann, a CTMH Rep who was sweet enough to supply the PDCC design team with the beautiful button accents you see on all of our cards this week!



                                        Thank you Elizabeth!

          Here is what I created using this weeks color story:


PDCCMay22

I used my brand new stamps from Papertrey Ink, Ruby Rose. I SO love this set! As you can see from my picture I accented my flower centers with the CTMH button pearls. I LOVE that they have sticky backs, which make them super easy to use!

I hope you will play along with us this week and I am super happy you stopped by today!

   Here is what I created for today's hop!



To create this card I used the brand new set "Skye". This set is just SO adorable! If you look closely you will see that I added detail glitter to her wings using a glue pen, and Diamond glitter. I created a pink "ombre" background using an embossing folder from Lifestyle Crafts. Now for my second card:


I used the super sweet set "Birds On A Wire". Seriously, over-loaded with cuteness on this one! I also used the YNS Fence die and Clouds to create this card.

I hope you like my cards today!

  Hello and welcome to Tasty Tuesday with YNS! This month we have a super yummy inspiration photo featuring spring inspired cupcakes! Here is the card I created for today's Tasty Tuesday:



 What can I say, I LOVE YNS metal dies! To create my card I used the Cute Bike die set, Puffy Clouds die set, Spring Garden die set, and a banner from our Banner/Fishtail die set. Whew! My sentiment is from the YNS Basket Animals stamp set. I am happy you stopped by and be sure to come back on Wednesday May 22 for our May New Release Blog Hop!
