Violet Thanks


I used some Vintage Violet ink to sponge on the background color after heat-embossing the CHF chicken wire fence in white ep. I added some die-cut Darice Daisies along with a SU! die-cut stem in black, and added a couple dabs of lavender Stickles to the flower centers. The sentiment is by Unity and was heat-embossed in white and cut with an oval punch.

I'm sharing this with the Tuesday Throwdown TT#282 challenge which is to create your own background.

I hope you're having a great Tuesday, and thanks so much for stopping by!

I love the colour you used here Carol and the chicken wire stamp is very effective. The die cut daisies are pretty as well.

The florals go so well with the chicken wire. Very nice and what a lovely shad of lilac in the background.

Very pretty background Carol, love the chicken wire and that beautiful purple inking. The flowers just pop off this background and the black is perfect accent. Hugs, Brenda

Gorgeous, Carol! What a dramatic effect you achieved between the black, white, and purple. Your "fence" looks so real I thought it was a photographic background at first!
