Hello. Today I have a Jane’s Doodles card to share with you that went up on the Jane’s Doodles blog last week. I felt like getting all inky and artsy and so after playing around with some distress inks, this card happened. I’m not usually a fan of purple, but it just felt like the right flower colour for the background.

The background was water coloured with Distress inks – Mustard seed, Mowed Lawn, Peacock Feathers and Chipped Sapphire. I then took a Penny Black stencil and dabbed up some of the colour with a baby wipe to create the subtle spots.

The flower, from the Anemone stamp set, was coloured with Copic markers and I clustered some black seed beads in the centre and adhered them with Glossy Accents. I finished the card of with some black ink splatters.

I hope all your Christmas preparations are coming together. My husband and I have been doing heaps of gardening, getting ready for all of my family to start arriving next week. The garden is looking good but I managed to stub my little toe on a retaining wall, and have a managed to crack the bone! I have one very tender, large and purple toe!

Thanks for stopping by today.

    I hope you are not suffering too much while your family is there and are able to enjoy them.

  4. Purple is one of my fave colours but I don’t craft with it very often, it’s really difficult to ‘match’. Your blending and flower are gorgeous Marion!
