A very atypical card from me - I used a paint chip in shades of purple which Sandy sent me when I mentioned that American paint chips must be totally different from ours - with which you might slightly embellish a card, but they would certainly never form the basis of one. Because the chip already had the little square apertures, I decided to matt it onto a green layer and add the little flowers. I embossed the paint chip with SU script ef for a little more interest.. Cheery Lynn small flourish and Memory Box leaf cut from the same card as the under layer. Edges rounded with a Corner Chomper to match the paint chip. Dymo label sentiment, flowers were a RAK, and have pearls added in the centres.

What a great idea to use a paint chip for the different shades of purple, Sabrina! I like what you've done with the little cut out apertures...beautiful!
