My card today was inspired by the colours
of The Play Date Café Challenge (PDCC#128) and is a
sample card for one of the freebie challenges at The Crafter’s Café which was part of
the Chickie Chat held today.
At The Crafter's Cafe a free

These is also another challenge you may

been in your stash for over 6 months.
To enter the challenge, post your card here by April 28th at 8:00 pm Eastern Time.
Here is my card:
For this card I printed my image and coloured it with copics and ink. I didn’t have the right colour pink in my copic range, so I used pen nibs and some pink ink to colour in the image along with my copics.
I cut the image out using a Spellbinder label
die and sponged the edges in pink ink.
For the background, I used the idea I got from
Dawn by stamping the sentiment first, then embossing the pink card with the swiss dots embossing folder.
I mounted this on orange card, added the
twine and mounted it onto my pink card. Finally
I added the kindy glitz.
Supplies:
Ink: Versafine black ink, hot pink ink (sorry
not sure what brand or exact colour as the label has come off)
Stamps: HA happy birthday greeting
Digi image: The Stamping Boutique -Flower cart
Cardstock: Hot pink, orange and white
Other: Cuttlebug swiss dots embossing folder, Spellbinder Labels 4 (largest
die), Copics YR07 & E37, The Twinery orange and white twine, Kindy Glitz
