A Sketch and Color Challenge

A color challenge at The Play Date Cafe  PDCC #80   and isnt' it lusious..beautiful poppies I think.


The gals at Verve Stamps are having lots of things going on. April Showers Bring May Flowers and this Sketch Challenge:

Which I thought looked so fun.  For my card I distressed the edges, for a little Shabby goodness, then  layered a paper doily, added some sweet buttons, a Senitment from Verve on a Wonky Die,  and added the May Flowers which are from Verve stamps and I cut out and layered them.
 Sometimes I think the hardest part of making a layered card is choosing all the papers to blend together. I guess it isn't hard it is just time consuming. and I debate and debate.

Be sure to stop over to both blogs, the DT's have some really fun inspirational designs.
Thanks for stopping by, and may you have a wonderful, fun filled day.  And all the Blessings of a        Very Happy Mother's Day.

Sylvia, those flowers remind me of gorgeous, spicy-scented marigolds, especially with the pretty red bling in the centers! Thanks for playing with us at The Play Date Cafe. :)
