Claire has been a long-follower of Runway Inspired Challenge and I think I've only been brave enough to enter once. I love the DT inspiration and thought I'd have a go when Claire sent me the inspiration photo from Banana Republic:
I used a Stampin' Up set called Flower Patch to get the flower dies and stamps all layered up. I used a cream printed pattern from My Mind's Eye as I wanted the cream color to shine out against the blue-grey paper. I loved the tiny turquoise accents on the dress so I punched a flower border using a EK Success punch that my mom or Claire got me a few years ago. I used another blue strip behind the greeting as I didn't want the cream to be more than an accent. I rarely use peel offs but I thought it really worked for this layout.
I'm pleased with the layout though think I could have been a bit braver with my interpretation...maybe I'll work my way up to that.
WOW!! You got your post up fast girl :) I love your interpretation of the dress..It makes me smile, because you saw colours I didn't really notice..Fun playdate man..more RIC challenges for us methinks. Did I tell you how much I love your new blog background? Cx
