ISSC41 - Dashing


My card featuring this week's iSpy Sketch challenge (ISSC41) also combines the inspiration of the current Runway Inspired Challenge (#23).  This week's iSpy sketch was inspired by this card by artist Chris Franco.  These were both tough challenges between the sunburst sketch pattern and the modern elements of the fashion piece.  From the fashion piece, I utilized the colors, stripes, and tried to use elements of the bag such as the pattern and the black round handles.

About the Card
The base is an A2 in white followed by layers of black and DP from My Mind's Eye - Christmas paper pad. The edges were distressed and some papers were embellished with Silver and Xmas Red Stickles.  The main image from Verve's Christmas in he Air was stamped on white using Onyx Versafine and colored in with Stickles.  The panel and mount were cut out using Spellbinder's Nestabilities circle dies and rhinestones were added for bling.  White satin ribbon was used and adorned with silver bells.  The sentiment, also from Verve's Christmas in he Air, was printed on Vellum with Onyx Versafine and the edge cut with Verve's ribbon banner die.
