Playing Along with The Play Date Cafe`

Whew, it's been a little while since I blogged on something other than the Sweet Stamp Shop blog... it feels so nice! I love to make a point to do something crafty for *me* every once in a while! 

I was looking around The Play Date Cafe and this week they had the most amazing color board story! 

Check it out!


Right when I saw those colors in that combination... it just hit me! I knew I had *the* perfect photograph to go with the combo!

The only slight problem is... for some reason the colors in the photo don't come out as true to the colors that they should be.... eh, chalk it up to my poor photography skills! 















Jake and I had some pictures taken back (about a year ago) when we lived in the Bay Area (California). I really like that we did... it marks such a great time in our lives and a great time in our married life. It was the first time we lived 'on our own' away from our parents and other supportive units (in San Diego). We actually made it work and were pretty happy along the way! 


Well, I hope that you might have gotten a touch of inspiration from The Play Date Cafe color board and want to play along yourself!


Happy Crafting!
