The Play Date Cafe Challenge PDCC06



  Happy Thankgiving to All!
Yes, we include our friends from around the world
as we are reminded it is good to give thanks for all things!

Our design team host this week is Sarah.
If you visit her blog The Art of Moodling,
you might just recognize this week's colors.
Here's what Sarah had to say about her color inspiration...
The colour choice came from an early step on a journal page I was working on.  I scanned the page at certain intervals.  I'm sure I read somewhere once that your journal pages can be a good prompt for other creative work that you do.  When you're playing in your journal you sometimes use colours that you wouldn't naturally put together.  I've taken a section of a journal page, identified the colours, then used them in
different proportions in this ATC.
The orange has become the main colour with
dashes of blue and green,
something I wouldn't have produced without this prompt!
 


 Here are projects from our other designers to help inspire you.....




Julie ~ A Vintage Chic



The prize for this week is $25 in stamping and scrapping supplies from a variety of companies.
Please follow the rules carefully to enter.

Deadline for prizes is 11:59pm EST on Tuesday
Cafe Spotlight will be announced during the next challenge.
ALL SKILL LEVELS ARE ENCOURAGED TO PLAY! 
We want you to enjoy this challenge, so interpret the colors the way you see them. We are not using specific card stock color names nor brands for our challenges, so you can really break out of the box and have some fun. What we do ask is that the colors that are in the challenge BE our focal colors...when using additional colors, please limit them to neutrals. You are welcome to combine challenges, but we do ask that 1. They be used for the first time here 2. You mention in your post that you are playing (better yet, display our color challenge photo) and 3. OUR colors are the focus of the card.
