Double D - Purple - Blue - Green

 

Hello Dear Friends!

It's time once again for a new challenge over on the Double D Challenge Blog!
I'm happy to say I am hosting today's challenge and our theme is:
 
Purple - Blue - Green
ALL or ONE
(if using only one, it MUST be the primary color on your project)


and here's an inspiration board I've created to help get you started . . .


An odd collection of colors but beautiful just the same!

I decided to make a CAS style card today and have used a paper panel from the Craft Consortum 'Ink Drops - Candy' paper pack ...


... to die cut my Memory Box 'Dizzy Butterflies' (#99445)

 Dizzy Butterflies metal die - Memory Box dies - 99445 | Inspiration Station  Scrapbook Store & Retreat

I then went over a few areas with TH distress oxide inks & small dauber
to give it a little more brightness.

Then all I needed to do was grab one of my Pink Fresh sentiment panels and my card is ready to mail.

 I hope you've found inspiration from today's creation!  
The prize that you'll be playing for this time around is:


 Remember, it's a random draw for the winner so it could be YOU!!
