Forever Green
There's a colour challenge at Cuttlebug Mania this week - Purple & Green. As the challenge is sponsored by Crafty Individuals, I thought I'd start with one of their stamps and I chose this lovely tag stamp. I've stamped it onto pale green card with Versamark and then used some Forever Violet Perfect Pearls over the ink. It's very difficult to catch the colour on camera but it is definitely there. For the background I've used the Special Touch of Mica vine mask and black card. Before I put it through the Cuttlebug, I inked over it with Versamark so it came out with the raised parts tacky. I've brushed on Forever Green and Forever Violet Perfect Pearls on. Some ribbon and green card to layer finishes it off. Purple and Green are spring colours to me as they remind me of the crocuses that are the first sign of spring so I'm going to enter this into the Crafty Individuals Spring Fashion challenge
