FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS wherever they lead you! The Teapotters went to New York this week! The theme of our Tickle challenge was to craft a card w/any N.Y. theme. I picked New York Fashion Week. I used lots of design elements on my fashion collage. Torn, distressed papers, faux stitching, many embellished die cuts, misc. lace, twine, string, ribbon, a button, a pc of a plastic net product bag, recycled cardboard (spool), glitter and metallic papers, etc. It was lots of FUN to make. I hope that the Teapotter who received my Tickle will like it!
My card is also for the LOVEFEST2014I "Die Crazy" challenge, which was sponsored by Simon Says Stamps.
THANK YOU for looking! EACH comment is appreciated!

How fun, Gabby! It looks like you went to the fashion zone in NYC and had a blast with fabric and all the notions! I bet you'll come up with something fabulous, just like this card!

This reminds me a little of the card I have on my piano from you with the dress-form stamp and stitching. I love all the little notions and haberdashery snippets you've added to this - and that wonderful paper which reminds me of old patterns in my collection.
The fun shows - and it will be a treat for whoever is tickled by this visit to NY Fashion Week.

My gosh Gabby, do you know how to "make it work" girl. This is such a wonderful collage. Love that dp that looks like models on the runway, and all the sewing notions are just precious.

Terrific choice of theme for the New York party, Gabby, I imagine they have a few "Fashion Weeks" throughout the year. What a fun idea to do a collage card and so well executed!!

Wow what a collage. Miss Gabby you have excelled yourself. I have this die set and the only part I have ever used is the spool (as a sign). You have inspired me my friend. I love how you scattered all the little extras through out the collage. The colours are fantastic and you stitching is the icing on the cake. Another fav for sure. I just scrolled back to see what I missed, love the little pin in the stitched fence!!!
