Ok.  So I’m a little addicted to Elegant Eggplant! Telford SwapThere…I’ve confessed!

I’m sure you’ll agree though that this is a fab colour combination – Elegant Eggplant, Sahara Sand and Very Vanilla.

I wanted to make a swap that reflected my style as a demonstrator and this sums my style up!  I find it incredibly hard to do straight layers – fact!  So it’s quite fitting for my swap to feature angled layers – I find there’s no right way to layer so nobody can see if it’s not perfectly aligned – brilliant!

So apart from my beloved Elegant Eggplant, I wanted to show that you can create a simply but truly gorgeous card with a few resources.  I stamped ‘You Are A Fabulous Work Of Art’ from the amazing Work Of Art Stamp Set in, you’ve guessed it, Elegant Eggplant onto Very Vanilla.  I punched this out using the 1 3/4″ Circle Punch and layered with dimensionals onto a 2″ Circle in Sahara Sand and a 2 1/2″ Circle in Elegant Eggplant.

I sponged my Very Vanilla layers and my favourite Itty Bitty Accents Flowers in Elegant Eggplant and placed a tiny pearl in the centre of each flower.  I finished with a little Linen Thread looped under the flowers.

I loved it so much I made a matching name badge!
