A Card: Purple Doodle Madness

hello, Last night I made a card. I am not too impressed with it. This card got its title becasue I went crazy trying to get it to look like what I had in my mind. I was feeling a lack of creativity, but people say its nice so I guess you'll get to see it...LOL. I wanted to use Sky Blue behind the flower so the punches around the flower in Purple would show up blue...But after looking forever I found I haven't any left....so I used White GP like the cardstock base.

I used various purples from Stampin Up's

BB & SS Watercolor Wonder Crayons to paint the "Doodle This" large flower. I am going to do some more of these in multi colors but I wasnt feeling it last night. The diamond shaped rhinestones are from a package of body art stick ons I found on clearance. I loved the shape and it went so well with the flower. I added 1 round Hero Arts 3mm to the center. All of the faux dots and stitching are done with my White souffle pen. A bit decieving when you put the ink down becasue it looks like nothing is there and whitens as it dries kind of like a clear egg white cooks and turns white..same principle with this pen. I punched 1/2" and then 3/4 " circle punches to make the circle shapes and used my Cuttlebug paisley die cuts to do the scalloped blue outlines. The white paisleys were cut with my Cricut using the Stretch Your Imagination(SYI) Cartridge. the Purple is embossed with my new Perfectly Paisley CB embossing folder. I am loving the new folders. The light blue rafia was another treat from the bag of goodies...thanks Faith!

Until later ...Happy Stamping!
