Grab Some Purple {In the Frond Paper Pack}!

Okay, so I don't use purple very often.  Hmmm, maybe it's once a year.  But I couldn't pass up the beautiful purple papers in the Frond 6x6 paper pack!  I decided to add touches of purple instead of making my entire card purple.  That truly would have been too much for me! :)  Here is what I created:
 

Papers:  Memory Box Frond, Paper Trey Ink
Stamps:  Memory Box Dill Print F1356, Memory Box Very Best B1359
Stamp Ink:  SU lavender lace, VersaMark, Ranger seafoam white ep
Embellishments:  EK Success braket border punch, SEI brads, Ellen Hutson ribbon

To create this card,

1.  Cut a 3 1/2" x 3 3/4" piece of kraft cardstock.
2.  On that piece, stamp the Dill Print {F1356} image with VersaMark and emboss with Ranger seafoam white embossing powder.
3.  Mat with a 3 3/4" x 4" piece of white cardstock.
4.  Cut a 4 3/4" x 3 7/8" piece of purple Frond paper, and punch border edge along shorter side.
5.  Ink the edges of that piece in purple stamp ink, and mat onto other piece.
6.  Tie ribbon around entire 3-layered piece, and attach brads to upper corners.
7.  Mount to a 5 x 4 1/4" card.
8.  To finish, stamp sentiment onto another piece of purple Frond paper, cut out, ink, and attach to card.

I hope you will try out the Frond papers and even try using the purple papers!  For those of you that like purple, this may not be a challenge for you.  LOL! :)  It really turned out to be fun for me to use.  Enjoy your weekend!

This is very pretty--of course I luv purple! I just attended the scrapbook convention at Arlington and got so many great ideas. So little time--so much to do. :) Have fun with all your Copic knowledge, glad you got to take the classes.
