The first thing I did for this card was create a grid. I wanted a small grid, so I used the grid from Guide Lines, to double stamp it to get my elegant eggplant grid.
Then I embossed stamps from Damask Designs on top. Then I inked up the rest with more elegant eggplant.
I especially love how you can still see the grid. I added my other shades of purple with the background color and rhinestones, and there you go! I just think plum is so elegant.
Stamps: Damask Designs, Guide Lines (PTI)
Cardstock: White, Elegant Eggplant (SU); Plum Pudding (PTI)
Embossing Powder: Clear Ranger
Ribbon: SU
