Monochromatic with a new stamp

Hi there!  Happy Tuesday!  I spent a relaxing weekend at camp with my family and had lots of time to sit and color!  I got tons of new Sweet Peas. This is "Silk Dance," my first time NOT using "standard" hair color.  I thought it would make a pretty monochromatic card.  So I went with all purples.  I used 3 different purple/lavender cardstocks, embossed one with Waves texture plate by Fiskars using the CB. The flowers are a combination of Primas, nylon blooms and glass bead flowers.  The image is colored with Copics.  I finished the distressed edges with dark purple glitter gel.  Thanks for stopping by today!  See you soon!

Tuesday Taggers: It takes all sorts
Crafty Pad: Embossing (background paper)
