For this card, I used the fabulous Freshly Made Sketches sketch. As soon as I saw this sketch, I realised how this card could go.....The gorgeous shoes are Stepping Out from Clearly Besotted and the bottle and glass are from a Pickles and Onion set. Normally, I would colour the bottle and glass and add some gloss.....the shoes might have been coloured and glossed but I decided that this card was actually working because they were black and white....it felt kind of boutique-y!!
The pink stripe and spot papers are from MME Fine and Dandy Girl pad. The gorgeous shaped turquoise bit is a die cut from my new Kaiser Craft On the Move pad and has "style" stamped from the Stepping Out set. Pearl swirls complete the card. I worried that they were maybe a little too much, but I think they work. What d'ya think?
