Play Date Cafe Challenge
There is a great colour splash over at The Play Date Cafe this week using BLACK, WHITE with a splash of BURGUNDY.
I love the inspiration photo this week, takes me back to SPRING when all the aquilegias are out in full bloom. However, with time passing by so quickly I resorted to making a couple more Christmas cards for this weeks challenge.
My first card is a small 4" x 4" square card decorated with black and white papers from Black Market Paper Society which I have hand stitched with BURGUNDY thread. The image from Memory Box has been stamped with DI Aged Mahogany, along with the sentiment from Outlines. To complete, I have added three co-ordinated buttons.
For my second card I have used an image from Crafty Individuals and added highlights of BURGUNDY to the tree. The sentiment is from the same sheet.
My third and final card uses an image from Inkadinkado, which is stamped in black. I have punched a large and small heart from white card and added part of the image to the hearts using DI Aged Mahogany and black ink. To complete, I have added three small hearts to the bottom of my card. There are some great inspirational pieces over at The Play Date Cafe and well worth a visit. Enjoy your weekend, Tracy x x

Love all three cards! Love how the hearts are layered and the beautiful paper you used. The poinsettia is beautiful. The tree is gorgeous! Thanks for playing along again this week at the PDCC. (I just picked up the Stampers Sampler and loved the cover I had to have it for that project and then read inside it was yours. :)
