PDCC+My Silly Valentine=Fun

Hi Friends,

How has your week started? Wow, I don’t know about you, but it was tough going to work yesterday.  I was so exhausted by the time I got home.  It was nice to see my co-worker friends, and I am extremely blessed to have a good job.  (It does seem that no matter how long the breaks are, they are never long enough, if you know what I mean!)

Onto today’s card. I got a chance over the weekend to make something for the current Play Date Café Color Challenge.  This is one of my favorite challenge blogs, so I love it when I can play along.  Here’s the beautiful inspiration photo

I love these colors, and I mean LOVE.  I had to make time to play along.  This is what I came up with.

I had been wanting to play with my Lawn Fawn “My Silly Valentine” set, so this seemed like a good opportunity to do that. 

Speaking of Valentine’s.  The uber sweet and talented Winter is organizing a card drive for St. Jude hospital for kids.  I would really encourage you to play along.  Check out her blog for details.  It’s for a great cause, and there are prizes to boot.  It’s a win-win!!  (Personally, I think the Lawn Fawn, “My Silly Valentine set” is perfect for this… I’ve already started my cards for the drive).

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Hugs and blessings

Lynnette
