Kate Spade - now this is a designer I could love. Tailored fun. How's that for a description? You should check out her other outfits at style.com.
My initial take was "stripes, see-through panel in the middle with a funky stamped image on it, strip of yellow." Yeah, the DT had the same idea... Off to the mental drawing board. I zoomed on Barbie's t-shirt and LOL - a polka dot handbag, a pink sprinkle donut a hot dog and a gray poodle. (I seriously WOULD LOVE to own this t-shirt. If I see the price I'll probably choke...) This is what evolved.
Used an older
sketch from CASE This Sketch. The B/W stripes had to stay. The yellow became more than a mini skirt. Red and white polka dots? I can't refuse. And the fun and funky came to play in the form of speech bubbles and the pink sequins.

This is fantastic! I shy away from bright colors, but they look amazing in this design. And what a clever way to incorporate the sequins. Thanks for sharing this with us at CAS-ual Fridays!
Wow Maria! This is one fabulous card! LOVE it! Thank you for playing with us at CAS-ual Fridays!
I'm with Darnell....winner, winner chicken dinner! Focusing on "Barbie's" t-shirt was such an awesome idea! I darn near fell off my chair when I saw the sequins threaded on the hat pin! Now this is sheer creative genius!
I see definite color blocking going on here. I love the pink on black speech bubble. The black/white stripes, bold yellow and red/white dots all add up to perfection in my books!
Gorgeous, Maria! Modern, groovy, CAS! Love it!
