Getting my weekly fix at the Play Date Cafe


I have to admit when I first saw these colours I was like what on earth can I make with this unusual colour combo. I nearly gave up on making something until I acutally put the colours together and thought that a modern and striking pattern might just do the trick.

I absolutely love handbags and own way too many, just call me Amelda Marcos. I have recently being seeing handbags on quite a few cards and projects and thought I would come up with a simple bag design and use it on a card of my own. I kept the card simple focusing on the handbag and the sentiment. For a different look I didn't use patterned paper on the card.

The Challenges I have included-
The Play Date Cafe-PDCC72
Alphabet Challenge Blog-S is for stripes

I have to clean and clean this weekend. So going to try and keep the house neat from now on, I have much better things to do with my time than clean for hours and hours but it has to be done.


Hope all of you have a lovely weekend, not full of domestic duties.
