Now onto this weeks Crafty Purple Frog Challenge and we would like you to use a LOVE theme :D I have used the beautiful The elegant moment decoupage from The Crafty Purple Frog. I have layered her up with foam pads and then added glaze to her mirror so it shines. The textured paper I have used is actually from some wall paper (I would not want it on my walls mind you lol) and I have cut it into the circle then inked the edge with midnight blue. The whole card blank I have also inked with the midnight blue using my dreamweaver brushes then I stamped some flourishes in the corners with pink chalk ink. The sentiment you can get from Crafty Emma's Store and I have added the gems to it. The gems and the sentiment are from my Crafty weekend goody bag. I think I will have years of use out of all the goodies I had in there lol. There are still spaces for this year so if you want a nice weekend away in October with other crafty people and to get your own great goody bag check out the crafty weekend blog for all the details.
