Just For You - Amethyst Monochromatic Card

CTMH Just For You Stamp Set's Sentiment in Gypsy Ink
 Monochromatic cards are always fun to make because the color scheme has already been decided!  I love mixing reinker colors with Create A Shade Pearl paint to make my own glitter mist. This fun technique was used to make some CTMH Amethyst mist to spritz onto the Amethyst flower that I cut using the Silhouette Cameo.  Are you sensing an Amethyst theme? :-)

Die cuts from Silhouette Cameo in Amethyst and White Daisy
 The flourish from the CTMH Love Life set was stamped on all the layers using Amethyst ink.  The sentiment was stamped with CTMH Gypsy ink.

There are a lot of CTMH Bitty Opaques Pearls on the card along with a Purple Sparkle for the center of the flower
Prior to spritzing the flower to make it shimmery, I ran each of the layers through the Cuttlebug with the Kassie's Brocade folder. This gives the flower more depth and a fun texture.

Some of the new items I have used from Close To My Heart will be available beginning February 1st!  If you have any questions, please leave me a comment.

Thank you for visiting today.  I appreciate you stopping by!
