My card for this week's colour challenge - Eggplant Grape Melon. I do not use Eggplant much at all but must admit I don't mind the colour of my flowers!! I also remembered to include dessert this week with a striped bg!!
A simple card, I was excited to use my Field Flowers stamps for the 1st time and stamped my stems in SU Old Olive, stamped the flower in Elegant Eggplant using a marker and stamped in the middle of the flowers using Melon Mambo. I lightly sponged around the edge of the white card using Concord Crush. Backed onto a Melon Mambo card, with Concord Crush Patterns dp as my bg. I then added my sentiment, ribbon and buttons.
TFL!!

I didn't even SEE the dessert option! LOL! You did a beautiful job with those colors! I don't use eggplant very often either. I do love those flowers!!

Super pretty. I just ordered this set and it will arrive today, so this is great inspiration for me. Didn't these colors grow on you as you worked with them??
