going purple crazy

I made this card for a young friend of mines 18th birthday, she likes to think she is a goth bless her, me being 30 now i consider myself a little old to know whats what with teenage fashion and hype lol.
I know she loves black and have heard her talk about purple so here we are. the recipe for this as you can see was very simple, No pretty papers were used, just some black shiny pearlescent card and some purple linen paper. I inked up the flowers into black and purple but they look a bit grey in piccie :-(
The layout i designed myself rather than my usual way of following a sketch, and the sentiment was from craftwork cards. brads of course were dove craft and voila.

There are a few challenges i want to enter this into if i may,

DYSU - purple
Creative inspirations - digi day
Fab n funky - put those papers away
Papertake weekly - anything goes
ABC - T for two images
Pear tree - free for all
dream valley - flowers
By the cute and girly - MAY chall, anything goes
One stop _ in stitches

  8. What a great image that is! I love your purple and black combo: both my children decided to be Goths when they were teens - it was easy to buy them clothes then because black and purple were IN. I'm sure the recipient is going to just love this!
