Loved the darker colors chosen by Barbara for the Color Throwdown Challenge: Elegant Eggplant, Always Artichoke, & Soft Suede. I used Roxie's Sketch Challenge for the layout. I went to this oldie but goodie lilac image and stamped it off once, then stamped it again for the darker shade of bloom. Loved that the DP carried all the colors and made it easy for me.
STAMPS: Blossoms Abound (SU), Whimsical Words (SU)
PAPER: DCWV Latte Matstack, Always Artichoke, White
INK: Always Artichoke, Elegant Eggplant
ACCESSORIES: Ribbon, Kaiser gold pearls, Scallop border punch (SU)
It's a perfect combo, Wanda! I would have enjoyed finding some DP that worked, too!
