Play Date Cafe challenge #73

Look at these colors that the Play Date Cafe has chosen for our challenge this week:


I found this die-cut that had all of these colors and used it as my start, then stamped all of the background panels and added some bits of lace.


supplies: cream, gold/orange, dusty pink and dusty purple cardstocks, K&Company Susan Winget Blossom Seed Packet die-cut, Hero Arts S4878 Old Letter Writing, E3373 Spring Memories, K5354 French Post, Impression Obsession WP25 Spring, Hero Arts latte chalk ink, bits of ecru lace from Carole

I really love how you've matted the sweet die cut with the stamped panels! I struggle so with using die cuts such as this and will have to keep your design in mind :)
