AYSI367 Purple Speed Stamping

Happy Friday, all!  It's time for a new challenge from As You See It, and it's the exciting SPEED challenge, LOL!  This month, we're looking for purple!!! 

The trick here is to assemble all your supplies, as well as the idea in your head, and make your card in ten minutes or less---and tell us how long it DID take you!  Here's my card, coming in at 9 minutes and 30 seconds:


Truthfully, I had to go back and reglue a couple pieces so I was really over the ten minute mark, but it was assembled in less than!  I created my window with the Everyday Arches dies and some Gorgeous Grape cardstock, then added the Perennial Lavender "scene" behind it!  The strips were diecut with a strip die from Taylored Expressions, and the sentiment is from W+9's Spring Blessings:


I think the Crumb Cake background is a little plain but didn't have enough time to do anything fancy with it...maybe I could do another with some embossing or stamping?  At any rate, purple is not one of my go-to colors, so I am proud of myself for actually using it!!!  

There are any number of ways you could go with this challenge....there are all sorts of shades and hues ot purple, from light to dark!  We hope you will choose at least one and play along with us at As You See It!  Remember to time yourself and share your time with us as well!  See you there!  Thanks for popping in today!  Enjoy it and be blessed!
