The Play Date Cafe Challenge PDCC66


Welcome to another amazing challenge with
everyone's favorite....

Color Splash!!!

This week's 'splash'?
Lilac
(or any shade of purple)

Create a project using:
Black & White 
with a 
'splash' of  
lilac/purple

Once again, your color host for this week is

"This lilac rose really caught my eye, and I realised that although 
I like purple/lilac, it isn't a colour I use very often in my artwork.  
I also decided to challenge myself to use black lace 
and stitching against a white background rather than vice versa.  
This has meant lots of hunting for suitable materials, 
which ended successfully in the charity shop with a lacy jumper!  
This is one of my tiny books measuring only 7cmx6cm"


This week's prize up for grabs is from one
of our very favorite sponsors....




It's time for more fabby inspiration from our design team...
