The Play Date Cafe Challenge PDCC106



 What a creative week!
You never cease to amaze us when you share your
beautiful interpretations in our gallery and this
week made it very difficult for our designers
to narrow down our winner & honorable mentions.

Thank you so much for bringing so much
beauty to The Cafe each week.

You seem to be really enjoying the beautiful subtle
shades we've bee sharing, so here is another color story
to whet your creative appetite.

Jax's suggested colors for this week are: 

Gray...Yellow...Pink

It has been truly amazing to see all of the wonderful
entries you bring to our gallery each week.
We also want to take a moment to welcome so many
brand new players 
who have made their way here to The Cafe.
We thank you for supporting our challenge and most
of all, our designers and sponsors each week.

This week's joining us in The Cafe is...

Practicing Creativity is the result of a dream, a supportive husband, and a fantastic book called A Million Miles in a Thousand Years by Donald Miller. After a year of wishing and dreaming of designing stamps we made the plunge. We were determined to try, and the quote below helps remind us of our dream.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” Mark Twain

Our Goal
First we want to provide you with fantastic designs, made with top quality materials, and great service to boot! Secondly we want you to be inspired! We hope you'll find our products as well as our design team as fuel for your inspiration. 
Thank you to all of you who have encouraged and supported us!
