Not enough purple!

Hi, Stampers!

I have a little project that my daughter's friends are making at her birthday party. Here's a sample that I made for them to copy --- however, I've been told that it does NOT have ENOUGH PURPLE!! OH MY!

I'm sure you'll see other samples with more purple next week. :)

This sample uses the new IN COLORS Melon Mambo-115320, Crushed Curry-115319, and Bermuda Bay-115317 Card Stock, along with Razzleberry Lemonade DSP-115675, and Rich Razzleberry INK-115658. I also used Bermuda Bay Polka Dot Ribbon-115610, Round Tab Punch-108340, Scallop Edge Punch-112091, Clear Rhinestone Brads-113144, One of a Kind Stamp Set-113624, Good Friend Stamp Set-113740, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter-102023, Sticky Strip-104294, SNAIL Refill-104331, and 2-way Glue Pen-100425. I also used my BIG SHOT-113439 and the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die-114507.

Let me know what you think---

I'm thinking that I need to add a SPINE or BODY to the Butterflies to give them more definition. :)

 ...and maybe something stamped on the inside cover...let me go experiment and see what I come up with...and of course, I'll have to add more purple!

Take care,

Tonja
