Play Date Cafe 99



Oh, what a pretty color story this week at The Play Date Cafe.  :-)   I just know we're going to see some soft and lovely creations from our players 'hanging' in our gallery there!
Our Design Team was blessed to receive some stamps from our sponsor, Paper Makeup Stamps.


My stamps included this sweet girl and a couple of sentiments:


I stamped the sentiment repeatedly in Barely Banana to create a customized background paper:


We have a new gal starting with us this week at The Play Date Cafe, Stacy Rodriguez.  Stacy is well-versed in scrapbook layouts and 3D items, as well as cards.  We look forward to all the goodness she'll bring to us each week!  Welcome, Stacy!


The prize this week at The Play Date Cafe:  a $15 gift certificate to Paper Makeup Stamps!  Hope you'll get a chance to play with us.  :-)

Thanks for joining me today!
