The Power of Purple

I can't believe I have to wait until October to give this card to my sister.  She LOVES purple, and even though Amethyst is the birthstone for February, I'm using this for her birthday.  BBTB2 has offered up the challenge to create a cake or cupcake card using Amethyst in honor of February.  I am also entering this card in Paper Playtime's challenge this week of using a sentiment stamp.  I used Sweet Treats for the cupcake, sent the chocolate through the Divine Swirls embossing folder, inked up all the edges too.  It was fun combining all the papers and shades of purple for this card.
