Lovely Lilacs

Today I am working with the
stamp set "Lilac" from her Paint
Fusion line. I love these stamps!
You can use them with paint or markers,
and even embossing powders.



I started out with a white card stock base.
Then took another piece of white card stock
and used VersaMark to stamped the middle with the small lilacs. I embossed them with
a mixture of to different purples. Then went over them with my Spectrum Noir Markers.

After all was dry, I sent it through the
embossing machine with a paisley print
for a little dimension.
Added the bow and flowers, and all done.

I hope you enjoyed the card today.

Thank you for stopping by and looking at my project.
