This card was for my mom, and I had to wait until I mailed it before uploading the thing! LOL To make matters worse, my mom ordered this set, and I just had to try it out before delivering it! So she's getting her Get Well card with her stamp set that she hasn't received yet!!! Terrible daughter am I, am I.
I stamped the lilacs in Lovely Lilac, and Elegant Eggplant. (mostly because I don't have Amethyst ink yet!) The leaves are Mellow Moss and Always Artichoke. I then sponged the edges with Lilac. The DP is Almost Amethyst, sponged with Lilac, and one layer is Cuttlebugged and sponged as well.
I did clear emboss the lilacs too, trying to give them some more dimension......it shows up better IRL. And I'm using up some HPH that I can't demo with soon!!!
Hope she likes it!
