A Celebration in Purple


Good morning. I just have a quick post today.  There are a couple of monochromatic challenges out there this week so I played around with this theme a bit yesterday and this is what I have come up with.

The image is Tilda with Small Gift which was part of my Magnolia kit but she is currently available from Magnolia-Licious if you need to have her for yourself. I was inspired by my trip to the garden centre yesterday and have chosen to with the colour purple. All papers are from Basic Grey. As I said, I was inspired at the garden centre and I have embellished my card with these beautiful Hydrangea flowers from Prima which look so much like the beautiful flowers that were on sale yesterday for Easter.

I hope that you are having a great weekend. Thanks so much for stopping by and for all of your lovely comments, they mean so much.

This card will be entered into the following challenges;

One Stop Crafts Challenge - Monochromatic
CES Challenge - Monochromatic
Stempeltraume - Oval
Totally Stampalicious - Birthday
ABC Challenge - Ribbon
Simon Says Stamp - Spring Colours/Easter
