The Play Date Cafe Challenge PDCC116



Hello all and welcome back to another great challenge
at The Play Date Cafe.

This week's suggested colors are:
Plum...Pear...Moldy Cheese

This week is a bittersweet week for us as we say
farewell to two of our designers.

Andrea Ewen began with us as our
2nd Private Blend Designer in 2010 and then joined our
team for two full terms.
She hadn't been blogging all that long when we 'found' her
and now, her blog and style are so very recognized.

Michele Gross hit the ground running here at The Cafe.
She joined our team over a year ago as our
Sponsorship Coordinator & Senior Designer.
We love her Clean and Classic style and know that
whatever she has up her sleeve next in the
creative world, she will be a dynamo!

We know it's not 'goodbye'....
We wish them both best wishes as they continue
on to each point in their creative careers.

Next week, we will be introducing a
brand new designer joining us for a first term
and we're looking forward to the next chapter
here at The Play Date Cafe.


We are very happy to welcome a fabulous new
sponsor.... 


We are a small, family-owned, Christian company offering exclusive hand-drawn images in both clear and digital stamps to the paper crafting community.
In addition to our "sweet 'n sassy" images and sentiments, we pride ourselves in offering many KJV-only scripture stamps.  Our personal conviction is that the KJV Bible is the most accurate and we found the industry really lacking in this area, so we decided to do something about it.  God's Word is so important to us and we love sharing it with others in this way!
