Yes, another purple card!

I know its another purple card but the challenge at The Sugar Bowl has an optional theme of shades of violet to go with the fab sketch so how could I ignore the option. The gorgeous girl is Tiffany from Simply Sassy and she has been coloured with Promarkers and Flexmarkers with the hearts coloured with a Sakura purple glaze pen. I decided to go the whole way and colour her hair purple too. The papers and sentiment are Papermania Lucy Cromwell. I used my Crealie swirls die, first time for ages, DI Dusty Concord, MS doily border punch, ribbon, pearls and Memory Box cherry blossom die with Core'dinations.
