Longing for Spring PDCC167





Welcome back to The Cafe.

Can you tell we are 'Longing for Spring'?
These colors will definitely put you in the mood!

Our suggested colors are:

Fuschia . . . Sprout . . . Canary

It's a bittersweet week as we say farewell to two ladies
who have brought so much inspiration to you.
Stacy & Jocelyn

Stacy came to us as a Private Blend Designer
and continued on the journey for over a year.
Jocelyn joined us this past term & has inspired many
of our players to 'go digital'.

We wish both of these friends the best as they continue on
in their creative journeys and as they simply 'do' life.

This week, we welcome back 
a very fun sponsor



My Creative Classroom is an online arts and crafts learning center. Our interactive and in-depth courses are instructor led and filled with wonderful projects and techniques to help you get the most out of your supplies. Our Spring Semester is just beginning with over 100 workshop classes to choose from.We have just announced the addition of our Library category! The Library features retired classes at 40-50% off their original price. So far we had added 20 classes with more to come in the spring. They range from Cricut classes to mixed media to card making and everything in between. A little something for everyone! Here's a sampling of our Workshop classes:

We are excited to be sponsoring The Play Date Cafe. You can view our entire class list on our website at My Creative Classroom. You can also view classes on our Facebook Page too!
Our 'Cup of the Week' will win . . .

Welcome ...



"Hey everyone!  I am so excited to be joining such an awesome group as the newest Private Blend Designer at The Play Date Cafe!  As you might have learned from the awesome contest this week, I am the proud owner of many titles and Blogger/Designer at Heartmade Life is just one of them!  My family and I make our home smack dab in the middle of Central Wisconsin, where we are in a constant state of remodel and redecorating, as my husband is also infected with the DIY bug.  I dabble in a wide variety of crafts and have always believed that anything handmade is truly heartmade - something I picked up from my grandparents as a little girl.  I'm also in my second term as a Designer for The Twinery and I cannot wait to bring my style and skill to The Play Date Cafe!"
