Last month over at Scrap Boutique, Manon did a fabulous tutorial on making a never-ending card. With my OTP track record, I wasn't very confident that it would work for me, so I used a piece of pale purple cardstock from my stash (no great loss if I mess it up!!) and lots of mauve patterned papers offcuts. It actually turned out better than I expected, and I was happy with how the colours came together:
This one is a layout I did based on Liz's sketch at the September Scrap Boutique cybercrop this past weekend:
The colour scheme (purple and aqua) wasn't a requirement for the challenge, but Liz did issue a me personal challenge a few weeks ago to use that colour combination on a layout. I've been procrastinating, but now that I've done it, I really like it!! And I noticed afterwards too... no patterned paper!
You have done purple very well!!! Your never ending card looks awesome.
ReplyDeleteHoly, no pattern paper!!!!! I bet that was hard, I know it would be for me! Your purple layouts are awesome. I think it is a colour alot of us don't use much of!! Have a lovely week :)
ReplyDeletethey are both gorgeous karen, you do such a sweet job on your pages!!!
ReplyDeleteThey look gorgeous Karen! The purple is great!
ReplyDeleteExcellent work with the purple/teal combo Karen. Love your never ending card - mine does not look like that lol.
ReplyDeleteLove that card Karen! Gorgeous papers too! And that layout is just beautiful. Love your work, and the purple is cool too!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to catch up next week!
Ha, I think you've now conquered your purple phobia! Love the layouts, fab job!
ReplyDeleteAnd hmmm, my never ending card didn't quite turn out. Must have another go and get it right this time. One little fold was off I think, and that caused the whole card to go skew-if!
I love your purple and teal layout Karen - it rocks & works really well! Love the card too ;-)
