ODBD is celebrating its sixth anniversary this month! The gemstone for the sixth anniversary is amethyst, so this weekÂ’s challenge is to use amethyst, lavender, or purple as the main color. I used the large flower from the Zinnia set and found zinnias grow in lots more colors than I realized and found one close to this color. Loved coloring it and using the custom die for the set.

This is another beauty, Cheryl. Crazy about that rich magenta color and how you matched the ribbon. Beautiful pearls too. A lovely card all the way round.
