Play Date Cafe Challenge #91


Just a quick post tonight to get this card in before the deadline.  After having spent 1 1/2 hours waiting in a specialist's surgery after school, I really need to get some jobs done before an early night.  I guess that's the price you pay for seeing someone well respected and extremely good with children.


I really wanted to incorporate orange as my splash colour, and the intention had been to emboss the flourishes, but in the interests of speed, white ink.  Can't get enough of the wonderful WMS July stamp release.

What you need
Cardstock - Bazzill Basics black, orange;  PTI white
Stamps - WMS Fancy flourishes and scallops and dots, Cameo Maker
Ink -  PTI Fresh Snow;  Versafine Onyx Black
Pearls and Gems - Kaisercraft
Dies - Spellbinders large and small ovals
Other - Eclipse tape

  3. Oh, wow--you continue to amaze! This card is just gorgeous--the touch of orange on the black and white is such a great accent, and the flourishes make a perfect background. Definitely "Big Cheese" worthy!
