Purple glittery Christmas

Photo Details

Poster: TrishG

I was inspired by this fantastic layout by flowerbugnd1 on her beautiful card. I really liked her colors too, but I changed them up for this card.

I got a tip from someone here on SCS that I used for embossing. Since I don't have Craft inks and I wanted the image to be purple to match the cardstock - I inked the stamp with versamark first, then purple - then stamped! I embossed with Iridescent Ice so the image shows up as purple with a bit of glitter.

The two pale plum panels are texturz embossed.

Oooo, pretty. I'm up for a purple Christmas, too! Love how it is 'blocked', and the brads ground it all together.

This card is so beautiful. Great idea to use versamark and then regular ink to substitute for craft. It's such an elegant Christmas card.
