For this challenge, we were to be inspired by Athleta's Swimwear. This was my choice.
I stamped ballet blue flourish from Baroque Motifs onto unk blue DP (crumpled looking) then cut out around the swirls and curls. I mounted this onto basic black & used piercing at upper half but since black, didnt' show up much, so I did the faux stitching with white gen pen. Wanted navy base, so sponged the edges of the black layer with white craft ink pad. Sentiment is from Target & added floral flourish from the SU smorgasborders set, sponged edge in ballet blue, mounted onto navy which I also sponged in craft white. Mounted up on dimensionals with 2 brads at the center of flowers. Also added brads at upper part of black c/s (not sure if it shows) and finished off with the white organdy ribbon with black swirls.
I guess I was expecting something else as a final result. Not that happy with it, but don't really want to mess anymore with it - sometimes you just gotta be satisfied with what you have and save the mental energy for the next one. Oh well, I participated - made me think I guess.
Inside, I mounted white for writing.
Thanks for looking
