Hi there ladies!
I decided it was time to go visit the Play Date Cafe challenge blog.....I keep hearing about it on the Hero Arts Flicker pool and finally checked it out today! I needed to jump start my crafting so I thought I would play along with this weeks colors (lime green, leaf green, pale blue) ......which I must say I almost never use.......I don't know why as I really like this color combo!
I used my Hero Arts long stem poppy and a Hero Arts sentiment and also used a new background stamp I just got yesterday made by Rubbernecker (I went to the rubber stamp and scrapbook expo- lots of shopping fun! ) I had every intention of sewing a nice white border around the edge of the blue cardstock but as usual I was fighting the darn sewing machine to not clog up the bobbin part. I get so darn frustrated with my sewing machine and my ability to not troubleshoot the problem........(I just might toss it out the window one of these days)!!
Thanks for stopping by and I hope to participate in some more Play Date Cafe challenges.
Anne

ReplyDeleteAnne, this is so pretty! I LOVE this color combo too! You should play with it more often...what you've done with it is gorgeous! You're also making it tempting for me to eventually play along with one if these challenges! I've been thinking about it too. So glad you went to the expo! Wish I could've been there with you! Can't wait to see more of what you've purchased! :)

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Anne, such wonderful colours. Love these poppies. (I had a problem with my sewing machine too and almost backed my car up and over it :) I ended up doing a google search and was able to troubleshoot the problem)
ReplyDeleteFabulous take on the color chalenge, Anne! This poppy stamp is so versatile, isn't it? I like the colors of the poppies and the design is simply lovely!
