Color Dare #650 and Double Trouble 3-2-1 Recipe "For Someone Special"

This is my Design Team project for Color Dare #650 You MUST use the two colors in the graphic. There are some Free colors you can add to your project but you MUST use Blue and Purple. For my free color I chose to use a silver embossing for my stamped mage.  







I chose to combine the Double Trouble's 3-2-1 Recipe "For Someone Special" and Color Dare graphic. The Background ingredient is a pretty gray diamond pattern and stamped my butterfly and  floral image VersaMark and then heat embossed with silver embossing powder. The Color Dare graphic has two colors that must be used, purple and blue, colored using Distress Inks for a close match, and this covered the 2-Colors of Your Choice ingredient. Smudged some color on my patterned paper while coloring so chose a decorative border die to cut the bottom r-h corner, added a purple corner including the background border.  Added a die cut sentiment and some jems to meet the 3-Layers ingredient.  

After photo was taken and posted the colors this was not a good match of the purple and blues... so a second card was done with a better match, but my smudge was in a different spot that I covered with a silver pen.    

Please hop on over and join us at Color Dare's Color Board #650, check out the Design Teams inspiration, and then let us see what you create... hope to see you there.
