Play Date Cafe Challenge - PDCC 24

Some stunning colours for this week's challenge in the play date cafe, which is my second challenge of the day.




I have used some more new stamps from Ally Pally - both Penny Black and both half price so I figured I was saving money, yes??  I stamped "letters and flowers" on a piece of white card which I then coloured with dusty concord distress ink, tied a plum coloured ribbon round it and added it to some cream handmade paper and a stripey patterned paper by Making Memories which I stuck to a square card.  The other PennyBlack stamp I coloured with milled lavender distress ink, but I think there was more dusty concord still on the blending tool!  A couple of plum (or dark lavender if you like!) flowers finished it off.

Off to watch the rest of the golf now and get ready to go down to see my Mum tomorrow.

This is so pretty, love that your flowers are on a purple background, adds a really great touch. And your ribbon and flower placement are spot on!
