Amethyst thoughts

img_7453card45

If you frequent the talented Julie Koerber’s blog you would know that she and her equally talented friend Laura are celebrating milestones on their blogs.  Even before I read about the celebrations and blog candy I knew I wanted to CASE this card on Laura’s blog.  Everything about her card appealed to me.

The paper on my card has been sitting in my stash for several years.  It is from Close to my Heart but co-ordinates beautifully with  SU Almost Amethyst.   To make  the centre panel I inked the floral stamp with Almost Amethyst and then coloured the stems and flower centres over the top with Always Artichoke and Elegant Eggplant markers.  Behind the centre panel I have attached a piece of narrow amethyst satin ribbon and then a bow of blue  organza ribbon.

Now I’m off to choose a card to CASE on Julie’s wonderful blog.

Supplies:

Stamps: Thoughts and Prayers
Inks: Almost Amethyst,  Always Artichoke amd Elegant Eggplant Markers
Cardstock: Whisper White, Almost Amethyst,  Always Artichoke,  Victorian B & T Lilac Mist (CTMH)
Also:  Amethyst satin ribbon, Blue Organza ribbon

    I added you’re blog to my favourites, many moons ago, but it has been ages since I came by for a look-see. I love how you have coloured this stamp – its a great look. I’ve also been wanting to create a card using that layout, but alas it still hasn’t happened yet, LOL.
