Hi friends! This week at The Play Date Cafe is a favorite... it's Color Splash week! I chose to create an encouragement card and send some sunshine to a sweet friend. I'm also popping it as an entry into the Paper Crafts Magazine Gallery Idol contest.
Black & White (or cream) + a "splash" of Mustard
I chose several of my Papertrey Ink sets to create with this week. The background was stamped using Background Basics: Wrought Iron and my focal point is the Garden Variety II frame combined with Simple Sunflower. The flower centers are embellished with black pearls from this week's fabulous Cafe sponsor:
I hope you will join us this week at The Play Date Cafe. The "splash" challenges always stretch me creatively and I have so much fun thinking in "black & white". I can't wait to see what you create!

What a beautiful card. I love how you have combined those three PTI sets, especially the wrought iron, which I have yet to bust loose. Looks like Summer Sunrise is our PTI 'mustard' color. Love that one.
