I went with the purple and the roses for my card and actually used a Cupcake this week! The layout is this week's Mojo Monday sketch and I went a little overboard on the "Stuff," I call this the Purple Embellishment Eater! :D
I used one of the new Inkadinkado $1.99 sets, Cupcake and Basic Grey Wisteria paper. I added Pearl Dots, Jewel Stickers, Dew Drops and Stardust Stickles all over...I even added stickles to the violet roses! The swirl is outlined with a Sakura Stardust Gel Pen and I even added a stickles frame around the image panel...
I added more paper and a glittered up Felt flower to the inside...
Supplies:
Stamps: Cupcake (Inkadinkado,) Swirly Greetings (Elzybells)
Paper: Wisteria (Basic Grey,) Purple CS (Bazzil,) White CS (PTI)
Ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento,) Copic Markers, Purple Mettalic Chalk (Colorbox)
Misc: Martha Stewart Branch Punch, Pearl Dots, Jewel Stickers, Felt Flowers, Violet Roses, Stardust Stickles, Stardust Gel Pen, Dew Drops
