Ready for the runway walk for RIC #97?
Of course I got all excited when I saw that graphic asymmetry in bold colors! But then I noticed the, what I imagined to be, vintage damask wallpaper at the back of the room. The kind my friend had in his apartment in Paris. Well, Altenew is sponsoring this challenge, and I just happen to have Persian Motifs which I thought would be perfect for a background. Au revoir bold and graphic. Hello gold embossing and watercolor.
And then I zoomed in on the purse. Lacy lilac goodness on orange. So I violet heat embossed a lacy pattern from CHF onto my sentiment die cut from Winnie and Walter Hello.
Meet my card. This is what I enjoy about RIC. The journey of making a card.
I'm joining the lineup at SSS Wednesday Challenge where it's Anything Goes this week. I hope you'll join in at RIC #97. It's open until Dec 11th. Thanks for coming by today.
