Sew Many Cards Challenge #2

COLOR CHALLENGE
-- USE ONLY THE COLORS PURPLE, WHITE & a splash of BLACK --


I used the new Friday Freebie "Wheelbarrow of Hearts" to create this card. It's colored with several different colored pencils (my standard, go-to coloring utensil): Blueberry, Orchid, Lilac etc. The base is a purple and white plaid from DCWV paper pack. Under the flowers is a strip of white but the flowers seem to hide it. I used a solid piece of black cardstock for the hint of black around the image. The flowers are "Daisy Carzy" by Prima attached with NAIL POLISH!!!! I had the bottle sitting next to me since I had painted my nails the day before and decided that it would make a nice center to the flower. (I think it turned out pretty neat.)

Thanks for looking at my card and be sure to check out the challenge blog at SewManyChallenges.com Sponsor for this week is: COSMO CRICKET www.cosmocricket.com
Challenge Prize: Cosmo Cricket prize package - Jolly by Golly Crafting Kit
