Purple/Teal Challenge

I don't usually join challenges, but the Mod Squad Challenge caught my eye, so I decided to give it a whirl.

Here is my creation:

It's really very pretty in real life, and the scan doesn't do it justice.  The Beaded Circles die is actually glossy cardstock sponged with purple, with teal sponged on the outer edges and then misted with water.  The 3 little blobs you see are purple gemstones.

I layered that onto a purple cardstock that had been run through an embossing folder, then layered that onto white cardstock.  

Stamps are by Melanie Meunchinger,  Gina K. Designs.

I think it will make a pretty birthday card for my sister.

Hugs,

P. S.  I also submitted it to the Penny Black and More Embossing Folder challenge.
