The Play Date Cafe Challenge PDCC27

We are so looking forward to sharing this week's

'color story' with you.  It just says Spring, doesn't it?!

We are extremely excited to welcome back to

The Cafe our guest designer for another week,

Jen Tapler.

If you missed her last week, you can click here

and read all about her and her creative experiences.

Our senior designer, Mona Pendleton has chosen

this fabulous color inspiration for you to play

with this week and can we just give a BIG

shout out to her husband Scott for creating

the fabulous graphic for Mona's color photo.

Your design team host this week is Stephanie.

"When I first saw this week's color inspiration

photo, I knew immediately what I wanted to create,

which was a card for teacher appreciation week.

That isn't always the case for me, though.

I find color challenges, well...'very challenging'.

I used to avoid them, unless the colors were in

my comfort zone.  Now, I enjoy them because

they help me grow as a designer."

Here's what our other designers have done to inspire you.....

Ruby McGuire ~ Ruby 2 Shoes Design

Lisa Somerville ~ Splendiferous Creations

Sarah Anderson ~ The Art of Moodling

Suzanne Czosek ~ Suzz's Stamping Spot

 

Savannah O'Gwynn ~ Savannahland
