The Play Date Cafe Challenge #84

Sweet Ruby came up with a really pretty color story this week for the Play Date Cafe Challenge! I pulled out some Hero Arts goodness to play with it...


I used my favorite CG134 Large Flower (aka the big ass flower, heh!) and colored it in with Copics. I couldn't resist adding Stickles and beads!

Here's Ruby's color story. So pretty!


This week's fabby sponsor at the Cafe is Mark's Finest Papers!


Be sure and stop by the Play Date Cafe site for all the contest details, and to see what my wonderful teammates came up with! They are so mega-talented, I love them to pieces!

Thanks for stopping by today!

  • Paper: SU gray, GP white, My Mind's Eye DP
