Happy Tuesday!
It's time for a new Shining the Light Challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs!
Here's my take on the challenge this week:
I love this image which is called "Violet". They look a lot like AfricanViolets that I use to grow. I'm into this "blue" coloring mood lately, so I chose blue again! I used a lot of texture with the embossing folders to go with this on the different layers along with my lame attempt to make a flag with the square punch!
Card Recipe:
Stamp: Violet (Our Daily Bread Designs)
Paper: Solar White (Neenah), Certainly Celery (Stampin' Up!), Colonial Blue Linen (Recollections)
Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine)
