This card is an Anniversary Card for my sister and her husband which is coming up in February. After playing the Inspiration Challenge IC268 from www.BarbieCollector.com already today, I kept going back to the Original Barbie from 1959 and wanted to do something simple as the inspiration. So this card uses Stampin Ups black and white striped ribbon in honor of Barbie's simple black and white striped bathing suit. http://www.barbiecollector.com/node/2368
Her skin tone is reflected here with Blushing Bride circles from the Just Believe set.
Apparently I am addicted to todays IC268 since this is my 3rd card. I could create a card inspired by Barbie everyday if I had to. She is just so lovely.
