Hi everyone! I'm back today with a card for the current Color Throwdown Challenge #465. This weeks colors are a bold combo of purple, black and white which is very striking and pretty.
My card is a clean and simple design with an ombre inked background that was inspired by the inspiration photo! I used distress inks blended together and then finished with a spritz of perfect pearls and water for a subtle glimmer. I die cut an interesting shape out of bright white card stock to top off this pretty background and also stamped the sentiment on white.
For the black, I die cut some foliage which shows up so fabulously against the background and layered a piece of patterned paper behind everything! For a bit more of the challenge colors, I added in crystal white sequins and a lovely purple cabochon!
Thanks for checking out my blog! Bee Happy!!
Supplies Used:
Stampin' Up Concord Crush
flower cabochon from Etsy
