I had so much fun putting the card together for this week's...
I absolutely LoVe the color story that our
Senior Designer Ruby 2 Shoes chose.
I also had a ball playing with the image provided by
this week's sponsor....
I stamped the image of 'Ian' and paper-pieced
his wardrobe using DP from Nikki Sivils and DCWV.
I am not a 'colorer' at heart, but I do love to pull out
my chalks and this was the perfect opportunity
to give 'Ian' a complexion and a lovely head of hair!
I can't wait to see the entries for this week's challenge!
Each week, the gallery at The Play Date Cafe
is filled with so many inspiring designs from our players.
We also love the design-work of our design team
and this week, we welcome our special guest,
Jessica Diedrich!
Here's a quick-click list of who else you will find
