Pretty In Purple!

Today I am showing you a card that I have made for a friend's birthday.  I normally steer away from purple - but I love the way this turned out.

I embossed amethyst card and covered the base of a tall card.

I stamped and cut out the beautiful Lotus Flower stamp from Stampin' Up and added it to a scalloped rectangle.  I wanted to keep the flowers as the focal point as they are so beautiful and so I just added a few lilac coloured gems and wisteria wonder seam binding.

I am really pleased at how this turned out and hope you like it too!
