I love the bands of patterns in the dress, so I created the same effect with strips of patterned paper. The fun sandals reminded me of flourishes, so I added lots of gem flourish to add some elegance.
This seemed perfect for a wedding card, so I added a gem to the bouquet and a flower as a final embellishment.

What a MARVELOUS take on the inspiration! If you were giving the dress as a gift, it would make the PERFECT gift card. Love the bling and the movement of all the cohesive elements - inspiration genius for sure!
