The Play Date Cafe Challenge #73

This week's Play Date Cafe challenge is sponsored by DeNami Design, so once again I'm playing with my adorable little elephant! Doesn't he look smashing in this week's colors?


I stamped him on three different polka dot papers, then cut them out and popped them up. The hearts were punched out, and the little cloud around the message was just cut freehand. I went just a bit bolder with my interpretation of the colors, they are a wee bit softer in Julie's color story:


I mentioned above that DeNami Design is our sponsor this week - they are offering up a $25 gift certificate - yay!!


The wonderful & talented Paulina Nakamura from DeNami Design is our guest designer! Make sure and check out her blog, Pretty Pink Posh! The DeNami Design team is also playing along this week over at the DeNami blog, so pay them a visit too!! And of course, check out what my PDCC sister came up with this week:

Julie Ranae * Sarah Anderson * Savannah O'Gwynn * Ruby 2 Shoes * Andrew Ewen * Fiona Shultz * Jaclyn Miller * Jinny Newlin * Michele Gross * Tracey Kuzniak * Colleen Dietrich

Thanks for stopping by today!
