Purple Plus

     
OK ... so here is my second card that I had with posting issues (lack of a device, lol) and I missed a couple of challenges that I used to work this card, it's ok though.  It happens - life is life and we must trudge on. The pictures could be better too.  Lighting was bad.
So, on with the card.

The challenge was " Purple Plus a Color" which I chose Blue.
I started with my craft sheet and blotted Seedless Preserves and Mermaid Lagoon that I spritzed water to.  I dragged white cs through the ink and let that dry.  I then cut that into strips and adhered that onto light purple cs on the angle.  I rounded the opposite corners and then faux stitched with a purple sharpie.  I cut the sentiment out in the same color cs with my cricut (Lyrical Letters Cartridge) and then topped that with glossy accents and set that to the side to dry.  I attached that to a darker shade of cs and rounded the opposite corners.  I used dimensional squares to adhere the smaller square and the blue flower.  All on the same darker purple base.





This is the sketch that I went with that I totally missed the cut off date for the challenge.
