IC259 ~ Vintage Sweater

Photo Details

Poster: Redbugdriver

Today Stef took us to another awesome inspiration site, Plaid Pony Vintage. There were so many items that I recall seeing around my grandma's house. What a trip down memory lane. I chose this sweater, Duet, to recreate.
http://www.plaidponyvintage.com/wome...114duetsup.jpg
I used red c/s from Hollo's, black & very vanilla, which I scored w/ the score pal. The vintage brad is Making Memories. I used the MS punch & cut off some leaves to make the flowers - very time consuming. This is 5 1/4 square.
Thanks for stopping by to take a peek.

PT - 2 & punched, punched, punched!

Impressive take on the inspiration piece. The white on white shows up so nicely against the scoring.

well, now would you just look at this recreation...NAILED it!
Totally great job on this IC, Karen.

Thinking of sweaters, I remember the year I got Bobby Brooks lime sherbet color and pink skirts (which we had to kneel on the floor at the skirts must touch the floor) and 3 sweater to mix and match. I loved all that pastel goodness...
