AAA Colourful - colourboard #28

Hello Crafty Friends,

A new colourboard challenge is up and running over at AAA Colourful, and this month we want to you to create paper craft projects using the colours -

Purples, Blues and White

A colour combination I found to be very tricky. The challenge inspiration image made me think of space, but I didn't want to go that route. I tried a few different ideas, but nothing felt right...... so I almost gave up. I am still waiting for my creative to come back, it seems to have taken a very long and drawn out break. In the end, I managed to create a simple card, and here it is

The starting point for this card was the peacock which I stamped, die cut and coloured. I know they are more blue and green, but I think purple and blue works just as well. After die cutting my card panel I die cut a heart on it. I placed a piece of cardstock I had embossed behind the heart opening to give it a little more interest. The peacock was placed infront of the heart and I stamped a sentiment. To add some more colour to my card I decided to give the panel a border, that I had ink blended to match the purple of the peacock. The finished panel was attached to a card base and I had a card!
