Ya gotta love an all purple card - it's just so feminine and fancy.
The layout idea came from a
Tsunami Rose Designs Sketch Inspiration Challenge #1 @ http://tsunamirosedesigns.blogspot.com/2013/01/challenge-wednesday-3-color-inspiration.html
combined with the
MFP Sketch With A Twist Challenge 29 - with
the twist being a purple card
(think this is a winner!!!) @
Initially I was going to use the white lace, but tried
coloring it with my stamper and then
colored it all.
Note to self - remember to color BOTH sides when using a bow..
I'm learning the hard way!
The rounded corners also from 365 Cards - Day 7 - Rounding the Corner @ http://365cards.blogspot.com/2013/01/day-7-rounding-corner.html
(but had to "hide" a couple of corners because
the challenge has a
minimum of ONE but a maximum of THREE corners).
Most of the patterns used here are from Colorbok's Fancy Fleur pack.
Electic Ellapu's Challenge recipe:
1 die cut, 2 pattern paper and 3 embellishments and a ribbon @ http://eclecticellapu.blogspot.com/2013/01/pink-teams-challenge.html
I keep baggies with various size cuts of flowers that I use frequently.
I've begun to learn that if I cut them out of a neutral paper,
I can dye and color them to
match pretty much anything.
Of course, the project isn't done until I add some
Liquid Pearls from
I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!
Wasn't satisfied with the lace alone - had to add a strip of satin ribbon, just for good measure.
See the butterfly -
I hope everyone at Red Carpet Studio (RCS - 19) can see it too!!!
Some 1/8" scor tape from
around the edge of the sentiment layer gave me some
additional bling -
and
ya'll know how much I love
SPARKLE!!!
