The Color Purple

Hello everyone..in need of some warmth and sunshine, but the challenges today kept me pretty up beat and entertained.

My card was so fun to put together. I had made some different colored flowers a few weeks back and just had one in purple.

I embossed both the black and the kraft with Swiss Dots and distressed the kraft with a distressing ink. I used a metal tag, stamped with Love and a little sparkle. The flower is layers of a square of fringed burlap, black netting cut with a flower die  and the 7 layers of purple cardstock, cut with a die, sprayed with H2O and scrunched up, layered and  popped up with foam dots, sprayed with glimmer mist and shaped. I added a pearl heart in the center and some wired pearls in the back.
I also added 2 metal corner pieces and different forms of fiber and ribbon.

My card is for the following challenges:
