Just Us Girls #476 - Photo Week

Wait until you see the photo that our host Lisa chose as our inspiration for Just Us Girls.
How lucky are you, if your birthday is in February, to have the lovely amethyst as your birthstone.  How will you be inspired by it?  This is what I saw.
The Mondo Hydrangea from EBE.  It is very difficult for me to get a good purple color with my camera but believe me I used the violet and deep violet Zigs on those petals.  I heard tell that watercoloring works well with CP ink so I took Twilight and used it for my background, splattering it with black and white when I was done. 

I hope you'll be inspired by me and the rest of the Design Team including our lovely guest, Lisa Elton, to make a card for the gallery.  If you are chosen Chic of the Week you could become a guest designer.

That Hydrangea is perfect in purple - what a clever girl to use it as a stand-in for the Amethyst!

Absolutely gorgeous Bobby. Anything purple is so hard to get a true colour. Your flowers are so rich and beautiful and really pop against your super background. Love the splatters - great finisher.
