Beautiful colours at the Playdate Cafe this week:
I think the colours are gorgeous, but I wasn't sure how to put them together. I had a look in my tin of ATC "blanks" and found some tri-fold cards that I had never used, so I decided to give it a whirl:
The background is coloured with a combination of Distress Inks and Adirondack Ink, then overstamped with stamps from Clarity, Lavinia and My Mind's Eye.
I painted some card with Claudine Hellmuth paints and punched out my flowers, then added some inked old book page strips for the border.
The sentiment is by Elusive Images.
I love this combo ( did I mention that before? Lol!), it's really bright and cheerful.
Have a good weekend. We're going treat shopping in a minute - woo hoo!
Thank you Playdate Cafe, and thanks for looking. X
