Runway Inspired








I'm playing along with a new challenge today, Runway Inspired ric#1.  This challenge is dedicated to finding inspiration from fashion.  This is perfect for me, as I am the most unfashionable person imaginable.  I know nothing about styles or trends.  I hope that by playing along with this challenge, I will perhaps become more fashionable with absolutely no effort on my part.  How cool would that be?

Here is the photo for our inspiration:


Here is my card:

I used Canary yellow to stamp Modern Basics as my focal point, and gold bling and a gold embossed sentiment to pick up on the gold and bling in the inspiration photo.  Also, the model is tall and thin, as is my focal point.  My card ended up looking a lot like Lindsay's card here, so while it was not my intention to CASE her card, I believe that must be what I did, since I had seen her card earlier.  I'll give her full credit for publishing a fabulous card that got imbedded into my brain.


Thanks for Visiting

  1. It's a beautiful card! And ha(!) about hoping to pick up on fashion trends from this challenge blog! I hear you - my 6 year old daughter is more conscious of her daily outfits than I am!
