Amethyst Sweet Flowers...


There is something so beautiful about the color lavender.... 

I've finally figured out how to photograph purples!  Well actually, how to adjust the colors in Photobucket to get the color to show more true.  My purples always photograph blue, so this makes me happy!  :)    But I see that it also adjusted my Garden Green, making it more brighter, when it should be a more subdued color.... oh, well!  It's still a pretty card...  ;)

Happy creating!  :)

This is really pretty Vicki. I rarely use purples in my cards, but it looks like I may need to add that to the mix, because it is quite fresh looking. Thanks for sharing!
