Tone on Tone

Introducing. . .lilac on amethyst on lilac on amethyst on lilac. . .
This is how my tone on tone card came out. I used a clear gel pen to outline the lilac butterfly at the top middle and the amethyst one under the sentiment. The central panel is raised. The sketch is from the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge, MMSS51. The tone on tone idea is from Gina K's personal challenge, INSPIRE21. The Butterfly is from Gina's "Eclectic Summer", STV Kit. The sentiment is also a favorite from "Grow in Grace" by Kelley at Our Daily Bread Designs.

Lori this is just wonderfully striking. So simple and elegant that it makes a gracious statement. The color and stamp images enhance it's grandeur. Great job with the sketch this week. Thank you so much for playing along in the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge this week. Hope you join us in May for our month long Anniversary celebration. Good luck in the prize drawings.

Bear Hugs,
