....I had to make another card inspired by one in Pam's gallery. Not sure what possesed me to use purple, other than I love the color purple. Some of the purple looks black in photo but it really is all the same purple. I just wish I had a better purple for ink. Added to the 'need to get' list.
I changed the color, the stamped image, the embossing folders and I added no gold.
I just got this embossing folder and had to try it out, same with the Spellbinder fancy tag. Love both!
Thanks again Pam for the inspiration. This card took a lot longer than the other one (which I made 3 more of) but was fun and I am happy with it. Hope you like it Pam. : )
Here is the card I chose from Pam's awesome gallery: A Green Merry Christmas by pam124 at Splitcoaststampers

Love all the detailed cut-outs and the purple. This is a beautiful card and you did a great job! My boss would go crazy over this card - every card I make with purple is an instant winner with her. Pam is sure to love this one especially since it is Xmas and has lots of embossing.

Woo Hoo, another card for the challenge!! Bet you'll get hooked on doing these FS challenges now, won't you?? OMG, I LOVE purple and this is SO AWESOME!! I LOVE your use of the spellbinders and Nancy is right, I LOVE that embossing folder and I went over the top in different Christmas card designs this year. Not sure I'll do that again, but it was fun and I had so many ideas!! You really kicked this one up a notch with this beautiful non-traditional color theme!! Anyone who loves purple will be extra thrilled with this one. Sometimes the traditional Christmas colors get boring, so it's nice to see my card get a color tune up!! THANKS again SO MUCH for playing the challenge and sharing your pretty in purple card with all of us!!!
