Fruit and Flowers and a lot of purple!

I love purple, I also like green, pink, blue, red........  perhaps red is my favourite colour but purple comes as a strong second.  Do you have a favourite colour?

For me it was no hardship to do this weeks challenge at LESS IS MORE which is to be predominantly PURPLE.  I've teamed this challenge with FRESHLY MADE SKETCHES and here's the sketch I followed - 

So onto my card.  I've used Elegant Eggplant as my card base with Perfect Plum as a matt.  Before attaching the matt I used post its to mask off a strip.  I stamped the group of flowers/ leaves from Fruit and Flowers to make a pattern.  The same stamp was used to make a pattern on the Very Vanilla in Perfect Plum by stamping off on some scrap several times.  My thanks so much is from Pocket Silhouettes in Elegant Eggplant.  

Then comes the fun toppers.  I love this flower and I'm sure I'll use it often.  For this card I stamped it in Elegant Eggplant and Perfect Plum.  Then cut them out using my paper snips.  The middles are the fabby In Colour Designer Printed Brads.  So much you could do with these middles - buttons, glitter, glimmer brads or just stamped in another colour.  Loads of possibilities.

Go check out Fruit and Flowers, one of the many fabulous new sets from the Spring Mini Catalogue.  This is the first year we've had a Spring Mini and it's well worth a look with lots of new items such as the Simply Adorned range.  This range includes jewellery, charms keys and crowns which will make a fab addition to your projects.
