Purple Tones

The theme this week at Lili's Little Fairies is Monochrome, so you can only use different shades of the same colour.  I've chosen purple, and made a cute wedding or anniversary card.  I've embossed the front, and then rubbed a pale purple ink pad over the embossing to make it show up more.  In addition to my purple ink pad, I've used a purple card to make the base and added an array of purple embellishments; flowers, pearls, ribbon, butterfly, and stardust pens for some sparkle.

Card Recipe:
I've been inspired by:
  • Totally Papercrafts - Monochrome
  • The Ribbon Girl - Bingo (ribbon, pearls, image)
  • Simon Says Stamp - Bingo (ribbon, free, blooms)
Happy crafting.
