Purple Christmas Trees


I have a pretty purple Christmas card to share today for a challenge to use non-traditional colors for a card.  I think that purple was about the MOST challenging color for me.  I used both dark and light purple, but I think the lavendar lumiere cardstock give the bit of sparkle that helps this card to FEEL like a holiday card.

Supplies: Gina K Blessed is the Season stamp set, Versafine Imperial a Purple ink, Hero Arts Soft Lilac ink, Distress Milled Lavendar for sponging, cardstocks from my stash, Darice Embossing Folder, American Crafts ribbon, adhesive rhinestones.

I would love to participate in SimonSaysStamp's Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes!

Thanks for stopping by!
