Finding Joy with Play Date Cafe

I'm sneaking in another post before work tonight :)

This card is for The Play Date Cafe. I really loved the colors this week!

and here is my take


So I have to be upfront I cannot remember the names of the stamps I used but they are all Hero Arts. I'll update the post as soon as I make my way down to the car to get my crafty bag lol. Now for the creating . . .

I stamped my background on glossy card stock with versamark then smeared on some ripe persimmon distress ink.  I trimmed and layered it onto a blue panel. The flower was stamped twice, once on the glossy card stock and once on plain white. The plain white one I colored and trimmed out. I added it to the panel with dimensional adhesive.

The sentiment was stamped (very carefully :) with jet black archival ink. I added a bow of bakers twine and stardust stickles to finish.

Thanks for taking a look! I know I say that every post but I genuinely mean it :) I love reading your comments!!
