Apricot, Canary, Latte and Rose....

.....are the colors at the Play Date Cafe challenge this week:


And here's what I came up with using the colors with lots of different design papers and minimal stamping:


supplies: white cardstock, design papers from Crate Paper's "Emma's Shoppe, Basic Grey's "Porcelain"  and DCWV's "Garden Party" pads, floral rub on from Dear Lizzy, Nestabilities Labels twenty, PTI sentiment from Garden Variety, natural twine, beige pearl

And once again, entering this into the Simon Says Stamp "Anything Goes" challenge.
