The Essence of Love and Color Throwdown #4

I needed an anniversary card and I thought this stamp set fit that need perfectly. This card is also for the Color Throwdown Challenge #4. I am enjoying these challenges so much! This week the colors are: Black, Almost Amethyst, and Certainly Celery. Gorgeous colors together! The base card is white and the main image is stamped in Basic Black and the edges sponged with Almost Amethyst. The little butterfly is done with a Martha Stewart punch and attached with mini glue dots. The main image is up on dimensionals. Thanks for stopping by!

Stamps: The Essence of Love (SU!); Cardstock: Basic Black, Almost Amethyst, Certainly Celery (Stampin' Up!) and GP white cardstock; Inks: Basic Black, Almost Amethyst, Certainly Celery (Stampin' Up!); Tools: Martha Stewart butterfly punch, Crop-a-dile; Accessories: dimensionals, ribbon, and jeweled brad (craft store).
