verve for a cause


I'm on to another challenge for Stampin' Out Alzheimer's today and this one is to win some yummo Verve stamps! You can check out the challenge here. I'm also using this week's Color Throwdown - Bordering Blue, Elegant Eggplant, and Barely Banana, which is funny because I still had Elegant Eggplant cardstock on my desk from the last Color Throwdown, haha!

See you back soon!
Karen


recipe -
stamps: fresh cuts
ink: elegant eggplant
paper: bordering blue, elegant eggplant, barely banana, whisper white cardstock
accessories: gold brads, so saffron grosgrain ribbon, scallop edge punch, stampin' dimensionals

Beautiful card Karen! I would never have thought to put those colors together but they look lovely!

Oh! This card is so pretty! I am guilty of not using Eggplant very much...well pretty much never, but this combo is striking. I love the strip of cardstock to ground the main image.
