Play Date Cafe #93


I decided to play along with the current colours over at The Play Date Cafe, the colours are Watermelon, Sorbet and Lime!  It's a good stretch for me, and they are appealingly fresh at a time when our outside temperatures are soaring above 100F, even having reached 110F just before we left for our vacation!

Here is my very CAS card!


Paper: cardstock (PTI); patterned paper (DCWV)
Ink: Sorbet dye ink (CTMH); Versafine Onyx Black
Stamps: Elements of Style & Bitty Basics (Stampin' Up)
Other: corner chomper; PTI dies; Dimensional squares; ribbon (very old stash); Scalloped edge punch (Stampin' Up)

Short and sweet today!  Thank you for visiting!  Have a fabulous day!
