Welcome to another challenge from the Love To Scrap Challenge Blog. This time it is: Anything Goes! We have three awesome sponsors:
I was given this gorgeous image from Lemon Shortbread. (I have to say that all the images I have used from them have been gorgeous!)
It's been a long time since I have made a purple card, especially for Christmas, but I do really love it and I love how this one turned out. It all started because I got some new purple shades of Spectrum Noir markers and really wanted to break them out of the packaging. And one thing led to another and here is my very purple card. The best thing is that I have a bunch of odd shades of purple card stock that I have a hard time using but the marker colors all pulled them in together and they worked perfectly. I hope you will get a chance to play along with us this challenge, and maybe even get a head start on your Christmas cards. : )Supplies:
Stamps: Lemon Shortbread "Winter Cardigan Shoujo"; Verve "Merry & Bright" snowflakes
Dies: Spellbinders "A2 Matting Basics A" rectangle and "Layered Poinsettias"; MFT "Fancy Flourish"
Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder

BUT my favorite are definitely die cut flowers as you can make them any color and can make as many as you want and once you have the die the flowers are basically free!)
