Heartfelt Wednesday's *Purple Butterflies*

Welcome back to another Heartfelt Wednesday :) This week I wanted to make something purple...I don't use the color much but I was inspired by my new nail polishes from OPI Euro Centrale Collection called "You're Such A Budapest" & "Vant To Bite My Neck" Here is the fun colors that I painted my real nails :) Lots of my colleagues tell me they are too perfect to be real...lol...I have my grandmother to thank for them. Muah!

Current Color...
"You're Such A Budapest"

2 weeks ago....
"Vant To Bite My Neck" 

So here is my card in purple...I called it "purple butterflies" because not only are there purple butterflies from one of my favorite stamps called "brookside manor"...psst...this is the same collection I use several the tiny doves on cards....but I also used the NEW "decorative butterfly corner. I just love the delicate diecut and all the swirls. 


Since I decided to keep it monochromatic, I stamped the sentiment and flourishes also in purple and embossed them with clear embossing powder on cream cardstock. These stamps are also part of the NEW collection called "sunny day collection". I love my old rose stamps from the "botanical 1 &2" and they work perfect with "rose creations", a total must have for any scrapper and/or cardmaker.


 I used pearls and ranger liquid pearls all over...and the white ink and embossing powder is my favorite from Mixd Media Inx- Jasmine. It really pops! Plus the help of pop dots.... :)


Thanks for stopping by and be sure to stop by the HC blog for more beautiful creations from our DT. Have a great day!
xoxo

I absolutely love the purple. It is a color I don't often use, but I do love it. Maybe I should use it more often!
