A CAS-ual Play Date, More or Less...




This card is inspired by these funky colours from Play Date Cafe, this versatile sketch from Less is More and CAS-ual Fridays April Showers bring May Flowers.  I just love the gorgeous stems and flowers in this weeks Play Date Cafe Challenge, and I couldn't wait to use my Memory Box Chloe Stem die-cut.  The white flower is actually reverse die cut from the Prima Doodle Deux paper - and the fiddly bits stuck back in place - I love the extra depth and texture it creates.  Other papers were from My Mind's Eye On the Bright Side - One, and Basic Grey Wisteria.  The gorgeous sentiment stamp is from Verve Always on My Mind, in Stampin' Up Elegant Eggplant.  Lots of pop-dotting of the white frame and die-cut flowers too.

A big HELLO and thank you to all my followers - wish you were here :)

This made me smile too
