For
The Play Date Cafe Challenge
It is Day #4 of the
New Release Previews for....
Today we are 'sneaking' a set designed by
the very popular and very lovely
Nina Brackett of Nina B Designs
I decided to step out of the fall motif
and go with something a bit different with
this set called 'Fruity for You'
I love the sentiment that comes with
this set. The song 'Simply the Best' has
such a nostalgic meaning to Paul & I as
we sat in the back of a taxi in
Dublin, Ireland rushing through the
tiny streets with this song playing
loudly...it was just a great day!
The patchwork on the pears inspired me
to pull out the beautiful gingham cardstocks
and the FAB inks from A Muse Studio.
I've said it many, MANY times, but I really do
AdOrE
the inks from A Muse Studio and they are
absolutely perfect for a project like this because
they are vibrant and silky, quick drying chalk inks.
AdOrE!!!
All A Muse Studio stamps, inks & accessories
are available through my web store.
You can order there and it is shipped
next day directly to your door!
I alternated the colors of the pears with the
colors of the backgrounds and that is pretty
much it. Very simple design but really packs
a punch in the color department.
Make sure you visit The Craft's Meow blog
and check out the rest of the design team's
projects. You will get a real taste for this set
by the time it is released on Saturday!
