Thinking of You in Shades of Purple

My sister, Terri, loves purple.  She lives in Wisconsin so we don't get to see each other often.  We talk or text on the phone whenever we can.  I was thinking of her today so made her this card using the color challenge I found at The Paper Players.  It's monochromatic although it's hard to see the three different colors I used.  The map is from the Map It Out photoplymer set from Stampin' Up!® and was stamped using Perfect Plum, the little hearts with Elegant Eggplant, the sentiment and borders with Wisteria Wonder.  There is a very small border of gingham checked paper behind the white but it's hard to see as well.  It matches the little heart I punched and added to the lower right.


Stamp Sets:  Map It Out, Gorgeous Grunge, Four You; Inks:  Perfect Plum, Wisteria Wonder, Elegant Eggplant Stampin' Write Marker; Card Stock:  Wisteria Wonder, Elegant Eggplant, Whisper White, Gingham Paper Pad (Creative Imaginations); Accessories & Tools:  Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack Heart, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Dimensionals
All Stampin' Up!® Product unless otherwise noted.

HERE is where you can find all the challenge details for The Paper Players Clean and Simple challenge with a Monochromatic theme.

  2. What an adorable card, Marsha! Like Mike, I purchased this set for exactly the same reason. What a perfect design to let someone in another state know you are thinking of them! Thanks for playing with The Paper Players!
