It was working really hard at coming up with some new way to use these doily stamps - but then I decided they don't need anything fancy - they are cute enough to do all of the work for you for a great quick and easy card. But...I did go for unique colors. I am playing along with this week's colors at
The Play Date Cafe. I thought they had a bit of a Southwest vibe so...here's my attempt at Southwest doilies!!
The colors are steel blue, peach and apricot. I write that because the graphic that follows looks much more muted that I went and I think the darker color looks like black. But I checked design team cards and I think I'm not too far off. I did add a little gray since I was seeing it in the photos.
- Stamps: The Alley Way Stamps delicate doilies
- Paper: Stampin' Up Peach Parfait, Night of Navy
- Ink: Stampin' Up Peach Parfait, Night of Navy, Papertrey Ink Canyon Clay

What a little sweetie, Kim! It has been months since I did a challenge card! I am having withdrawals. Hugs xxx
