Teal & Purple

Morning my crafting friends, so good of you to visit me today, I do appreciate it and hope you will visit again. may I give a BIG Thank You for all your lovely comments recently whether you are known to me or not, new or old I thank you. I have not had much time to get round to everyone to thank them personally so I hope this will suffice?

Just two more weeks to go then we break up for the summer during which time I hope to get most of my Christmas cards done, ha ha she says, I said that last year!!!

More bits and pieces out of the box I am afraid but this time I got a bit daring with the colours, I hope you like them but whether you do or don't I would love to hear from you.

Items used:

Creative Expressions Foundation Card Teal
Crafters Companion Centura Pearl Pastel Lilac
Kanban Purple Card

I wasn't sure at first whether to put the two colours together but the more I looked at them the more I liked them, it may be a bit bold for some. I had the two boarders in different colour Purples so placed the darker one on the Lilac card and the lighter one over the Teal card.

I could have added the Purple Gilding Wax but felt the Patina colour would enhance the Teal card rather than take the colour away.

I have lined the inside of the card with a sheet of paper from the Delicate Asters Collection as most of these are Purple it went with the card adding some slight decoration inside.

Thank you for looking, Jacquie xxx
