Play Date Cafe Challenge 26




After about 5 attempts I have finally got a card that I'm more or less happy with! I found it really hard to use this week's colours, but that's why I like the Play Date Cafe challenges - they give my brain a good workout!
I have used Stampin' Up pp and sentiment stamp; Inkadinkado dress stamp, coloured with Copics; Hero Arts text stamp and Martha Stewart and EK Success punches.

    Phew at last. Another lovely card. I'm sure the first ones were just as lovely. Not sure why you fret so much cos everything you do is great even when you don't like it.

    Lovely use of the colors! It took me around 4 tries with lots of extra pieces left when I finally got to my card too! I think this is beautiful and well worth the effort! Thanks for playing again at PDCC!

    Yes I'm struggling too :) and I agree with Karen, I bet if I saw the first five attempts, I would think they were your usual stunningly high standard :) That said, I love this card and the vibrant blue dress is very striking. Px

    Guess that's why they call it a challenge : ) Was a toughie for many but you did an outstanding job making it work, Miche!

    Gorgeous card Michelle! I've always loved this dress stamp but never bought it because I wasn't sure how to use it. You've made such a lovely card with it! So glad you didn't give up on the challenge!! Thanks for playing along with us again this week at the Play Date Cafe!

    I agree with you about the colors but I, too, HAD to play! LOVE the dress on the hanger as the focal point! It all goes together so well and looks effortless!!!
