Fantasy Stampers Challenge - Silhouettes


I'm hoping I get this posted in time before the current Fantasy Stampers challenge entry time is up.
This time the theme is 'Silhouettes'. I stamped the Ingdgo Blue stamp with Versafine Imperial Purple and used Squeezed Lemonade and Shaded Lilac DI for the background. The 'lace' mat is a Martha Stewart around the page punch, punched from white card and coloured with a Spectrum Noir. I was really pleased with how it all toned in - and then out came the camera! The purple Spectrum Noir looks blue and the Imperial Purple almost has a pink tinge to it. Maybe when the light gets round the front I'll take another and see if that improves it. The ribbon is from my stash, the leaves a Cheery Lynn die and the flower I made myself - in a rush as I'm off to the dentists in a min. Fortunately it's not stuck down so I can come back and try to make a better one to replace it.
Thank you for visiting today.

Such a beautiful image Beryl and I love the papers, colours and that gorgeous ATP punch you've used too.
I think you're much too critical though as I think the colours look lovely together (perhaps you've already updated your photo of course!)

I love your beautiful silhouette image and fabulous background, the purple and lemon go so well together.

Stunning card and gorgeous colours Beryl, I love that stamp and you've showcased her beautifully. I always have a problem taking photos of purple cards as my camera always changes the colour
