Purple is definitely an "in" colour right now! It also happens to be a difficult colour to work with, at least for me. But, I found a new challenge blog with a delightfully purple colour challenge thanks to a commenter here on my blog (thanks Sandra!) called Stamping Royalty! This is their second colour challenge and I must say, I LOVE how this card ended up. As my neutral, I used Kraft, but everything else is purple, purple, purple!
I used a set I haven't used in a little while --: Fresh Cuts and embossed it in Elegant Eggplant on the Rich Razzleberry card stock. I had a little bit of fun with my sewing machine again too! and, did you notice the brad in the center of the embossed flower? That was originally silver but I coated it with the Elegant Eggplant craft ink and embossed it with clear embossing powder! Cool, eh?
I hope you like it! Thanks for visiting :)
