PDCC62

I have a quick card made for the Play Date Cafe this week!
I love this time of year.....all the pinks, reds, whites.
They are some of my favorite colors!


I thought using PTI's Dotty Biscotti paper was perfect for this
challenge. 


I tried my hand at making a felt flower from the medium scallop die from PTI.
This was fun and I will certainly make more of these!  Pair it up with
some of those larger buttons you get and have fun mixing and matching!


Thanks so much for stopping by today!  Have a great first week of 2011!!

{For You}
All supplies PTI unless stated.
Stamps:  Mat Stack 1 and 2 Collection
Paper:  Kraft, Stamper's Select White, Sweet Blush, Dotty Biscotti DP
Ink:  Dark Chocolate
Misc:  Raspberry Fizz Felt, White Button, Embroidery Floss (DMC), Mat Stack 1 Die, Foam Tape

    I love how you made your flower!! That was from the scalloped die, huh? It looks similar to one of the new blooming builders dies (whatever they are called). I like this flower more than those though! So very cute! Love the clean layout you used on this too!

    I love this! I'm especially digging the off-centeredness of the sentiment within the label. Great card.
