WMS Sketch Challenge #41 & PDCC75

I am down to the wire on this Play Date Cafe color challenge...I have less than thirty minutes to get it posted before the deadline! :) Procrastination, anyone? ;)

Actually, I do have somewhat of an excuse...my kiddos are on spring break this week, so that means less time in my craft room for me...I have to squeeze it in here & there and I just didn't get to it until the last minute! :)

I combined Waltzingmouse's Sketch Challenge with the PDCC colors, and had some fun with Copics! (I just invested in a bunch of Copic markers and I'm completely in love with them...hooked, addicted, sold, etc, etc...they are SO much fun!)

Here is the PDCC photo inspiration for the colors:



And here is the WMS sketch; cute little mini cards!



And here's what I came up with using these two wonderful inspirations:
