How's the weather in your part of the world? It was warm and super sunny here in Seattle.
Today's blog post is about a card I created for the Runway Inspired Challenge. I usually love love LOVE looking at the inspirational posts on this site because it's based on fashion. Some how fashion and cards can go hand in hand. I decided to participate this week because I couldn't resist designing a card based on this dress. It's gorgeous, soft, delicate, pastel... sigh, I could go on and go about this dress.
Here's my card based on the dress:
Most of the material used on this card is from the Feb 2014 Simon Says Card Kit. I picked a lovely floral paper to replicate the pastel design of her dress and I added vellum to add some airiness to the card. I white embossed a few flowers and the sentiment "Thinking of you" from the Simon Says Stamp set also entitled "Thinking of you". Next, I finished off the card with some blue ribbon to mimic her pale purse and a few Hero Arts pearls. This is by far my favorite card.
Hope you have a good week. Happy (almost) weekend!
Cheers,
Janet
