Dandelions

 Today's card is one of those which unfortunately we all need from time to time and it is good to have a few in hand rather than having to rush around to make one in a hurry.  I've used a piece of card which had been inked with some Pixie powders and possibly Brusho and onto this I stamped some dandelion heads in a matching purple ink as well as the sentiment using black.  Next I over stamped the dandelion heads using Versamark and embossed with white detail powder, finally mounting this onto a darker purple layer and then onto the  base card.
