Lovely Lilacs

Hello Everyone,

For today I will be playing along with Addicted to CAS, AAA Cards, and Stamping Sensations card challenges. Here is my card for today, enjoy!!

I found a technique on Pinterest, of course, on how to make lilacs using q-tips. I know it is an old method but I have never heard of it and was intrigued. I stamped some leaves from a retired SU set and got to work using q-tips to create some lilacs. It is probably self-explanatory but all I did was dip a q-tip in paint and dabbed it on the cardstock. Easy peasy! 
I used exactly one-third of the card base. I was unsure by just eyeballing it so I took to a ruler and measured it out.
