Play Date Cafe Challenge #30


I am loving the colors chosen lately for Play Date Cafe's challenges! This one is more of my favorite pastels: pale yellow, light green, and pink. Here are the colors:



Here is my take on them:

                           
I used designer papers from 2 Brenda Walton mat pads; I thought the colors were right on.

Supplies: K&Company Brenda Walton Designer Mat Pads Small Wonders Girl and Small Wonders Boy, Hero Arts stamps CG130 Butterflies, CL380 Truly Appreciated
