We have a colour challenge at Inkspirational - purple with grey or silver.
For my DT card I used a bauble stamp I got free with a magazine. I had to play around a lot to get the intensity of purple I wanted. I used several inks and some plum Twinkling H20s and I sprayed everything with water for mottled effect. Then I used silver embossing powder to emboss the stamped image. Finally, I sprayed it with glitter.
In the end I made three cards - here are the other two:
We would love you to join us at Inkspirational with your purple and grey project. We have a wonderful guest designer, Lynda, so do come over and take a look.

Great background and I do like the doodle limes in the second card x
Oh, these baubles are incredibly pretty, especially the way you've showcased them! Slightly smaller, and they'd make a stunning pattern for a pair of earrings... Wonderful inspiration!

It's so inspirational to see different designs using the same stamps, a little change in design or color makes a big difference! Love this week's color scheme!
Gorgeous cards, I love the intense purple in the 1st one, looks amazing, Cathy x
This is wonderful, Marina! Great stamp and I love that purple background. Love the silver embossed paper you used too. I think I like the first card best but I do really like the doodled frame and that. :-)
I like how you played with shades of purple. Great colors and the embossed silver looks fantastic over top. What a fun stamp. A great find to get it with a magazine!
