Pretty & Purple

Hi stampers!  I have yet another sneak peek for you today!  Normally, I'm not a purple fan....well in stamping anyway.  There IS purple in my closet!  Not sure why I don't use it much in stamping but I was not the LEAST bit sad when SU retired some of the purple colors last year...maybe I was the only one??!?!?!  Now, I do love rich razzleberry but the others I could take or leave.  BUT in walks one of the new in colors, Wisteria Wonder.  OMGEEEEE!  It's so pretty!  I just LOVE it.  It's a softer purple color with a hint of gray...which is probably why I like it, I love gray (my mom and I would go round and round in high school because she said all I ever wanted her to buy for me was gray clothes and I needed some color, lol).  So, as soon as I saw wisteria wonder I knew I wanted to try it out with perfect plum and basic gray.  And THIS is what I came up with:

Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps:  Delicate doilies, tiny tags
Paper:  Very vanilla, watercolor, basic gray, wisteria wonder, perfect plum
Ink:  perfect plum craft, perfect plum, wisteria wonder, basic gray
Accessories:  Circle punches, doily triple layer punch, crochet trim, jewelry tag punch, fan letterpress plate, basic rhinestones

The wisteria looks a bit blue in the picture but it's really not, it's a pretty lavender!  There are some other fabulous sneak peeks here too!  One is the stamp set, delicate doilies which is so fun!  I've made a number of cards with it already!  It makes great clean & simple cards but is also great for more complicated ones like here as well.  I also used the new fan letterpress plate and love it's vintage look for my background.  Oh and the stamp set also coordinates with the doily triple layer punch!  A hint here is that I punched out my shape first and then used my SAMJ to stamp on the shape just perfect since you can't use those punches upside down.  I'm still not feeling up to par after vacation and had a headache tonight so that's all for now!  See you soon!  Happy stamping!
