why did the spats inspire me? i wish i knew. maybe it's because they look like the person wearing them is having fun...or would be fun to be with. maybe it's because i wish my legs were that skinny...maybe it's because "Wicked" has been playing on my pandora radio and it's coming to boston and i want to see it (which is why i made the stockings green for sure)... i'm not sure. i only know i want to buy these spats...and i don't even OWN a bicycle! not even a stationary one! anyway, here's my inspiration for this challenge:
oh, btw, i did draw the boots and shoes but nooot exaaaaactly freehand. i actually held a piece of paper over the photo and traced it....yeah, i'm sneaky that way.

How fun! I really enjoyed reading your reasoning. Hope you get to see WICKED...it's one of my favorite musicals...got to see it again last week-end! If you get the spats...you'll be noticed for sure! Love your card!!

Oh my goodness - I looked at those and thought who could be inspired by them. And look - you were, and you made such a fun and imaginative card that really made me smile to see this morning. What a wonderful inspired take on the challenge.
