Blogger's Challenge #162 AND PDCC40: Black White and Color of choice

Since these two challenges were so closely related this week, I decided to combine them!  The Blogger's Challenge was Black, White and a color of our choosing and the Play Date Cafe Challenge, pictured below, was Black White and Green so I went with green to meet both challenges.  But, I do have two cards!

First, here's the picture for the PDCC Challenge:


My first card was really a warm-up card.  I borrowed the idea for the card from a blog but I was a BAD blog reader as I didn't save the original creator's name with her card!  She used Daffodil Delight and I used a version of her card as my make and take for my open house.  I substituted Pear Pizzazz for Daffodil and here's what I came up with for today:



I thought that I should also come up with one more for both challenges so here's my second take:



Thanks for stopping by and please play along with both challenges and check out what the Blogger's Challenge girls came up with for their "choice" color!
