Purple Haze
I had a special request for a card from a coworker. He wanted purple and black colors, so when I saw the new Card Concept Challenge, I wanted to share it there as well! I chose the mixed
media style since I used at least 2 different mediums - watercoloring and texture paste - on my card. The sentiment was computer generated (this is a special saying between him and his fiance`). I used Mijello Mission Gold paints to watercolor the background. I then splattered Black Soot distress ink and added Wendy Vecchi metallic silver embossing paste using a Heidi Swapp stencil. The purple zigzag edge is from my fave Reverse Confetti die set - Edge Essentials. I also die cut RC's Butterfly Dreams large butterfly out of vellum. Over that, I layered Concord and 9th's Floral and Flutter die cut butterfly.
Thanks so much for stopping by! It's an overcast day here in VA but I'm feeling great knowing I have a 3 day weekend off work starting tomorrow!
