The Play Date Cafe Challenge #94

It's Play Date Cafe time! And I am seriously diggin' this week's colors!


This week we're sponsored by Practicing Creativity - I'm also diggin' this fun Carved Love set I got to play with!


The colors from Jax this week are totally fabby:


I cut out the hearts from my Carved Love set and then coated then with Crackle Accents. I love that stuff. LOVE IT!! I also did some intentionally-messy-sewing, which always makes me smile as I do it. It's a sewing free for all!!


I thought the staple and brad at the bottom looked a little bit like an X & O, as in hugs & kisses. hee hee

Be sure to stop by The Play Date Cafe blog - to check out what my amazing teammates came up with, and to play along!!

XOXOXO to YOU!


  • Stamps: Carved Love from Practicing Creativity

    GREAT cracked glass hearts, Libby! THat has so much texture, and I'm glad you took some closeup pix of that. And messy sewing? I'm all for it!

    This card immediately leapt out at me when I looked at the DT inspiration this week. Love the bold colours, the crackle paint and the wavy stitching! :)
    And thanks for the supportive comment on last week's challenge - made me feel a lot better about it! :)
