Hello,
Thank you for joining me today for some inspiration. You have joined me from the lovely Mercia Poree. Her creation this week is nothing but inspirational. I had the pleasure of meeting and spending some time with Mercia at Onstage Local @ Gold Cost this year. She is a lady of many talents and if you live in her area, check out her classes/workshops.
Our challenge this week was to use the following colour combinations.
I’m love blue and in any shade but purple!
I know lots of people who are passionate about purple. I don’t think I know of a colour that seems to attract such a passionate following like purple. I know it is the colour of royalty but ….
So hope you like my creation this week. But before we peek, I just want to let you all know that:

Nicky, this is a brilliant example of bokeh. I love it. I must have another look at the Balloon Celebration stamp set, as I totally missed that cute little dandelion image.

Thanks Tamsin, I had been putting off having a go at doing this technique as I thought I could be a bit out of my creativity league. So thank you for the lovely comment.
