In
the market square today there was to be a fashion show. Apparently a
famous designer from across the Pearlescent Sea was here, displaying his
newest designs. The Lady Commander of Copics and I decided to have a
look and maybe find something to replace some of the old tunics that are
getting a little worn. When we arrived, there was no mistaking who the
designer was. He wore a silky black tunic and a puffy pink scarf. The
man seemed rather stressed, throwing his hands up in exasperation and
shouting orders at his troupe of halflings.
I
created this card by stamping The Greeting Farm’s “Sunday” image on
several patterned papers and painstakingly cutting his clothes and hair
out to paper piece him together. I used the Art Philosophy cartridge to
cut the large “stamp” border and embossed the edge piece with my
Cuttlebug. I used the Rock Princess cartridge for the stars.
Earning
myself +183 sparkly exp points, I added some glitter to the stars and
some square shaped gems to each corner of the card. The sentiment I
stamped using the Dylusions “Say It How It Is” set.
On
the inside I used another postage stamp cut from Art Philosophy and
some stars I had left over. The sentiments were stamped using the My
Creative Time “Wow! So Many Candles” set and the My Pink Stamper
“Birthday Crazy” set respectively. I stamped the envelope to coordinate with the card. The green is a little “off”, but it was the closest match I had to the neon green I used on the card.
This sassy creation will sashay into the following challenges:
Desert Islands Crafters Challenge #52: (used #1- no flowers #3 - no markers #4 - follow a sketch #6 - use glitter #7 - bling it up
The Lady Commander of Copics and I didn’t end up purchasing anything as the fashions that were on display were a little too impractical for our needs. We did however enjoy the “show” as we sipped on tea at a nearby cafe and watched as the diva designer lost his cool on everyone he encountered.
