Oh, my goodness Stef and Audrie! I got lost in the Temperley London website. What amazing couture. The art of the fashion collections is beyond words. So rich (to the purse) and eye. I can appreciate the graphic designs coupled with the delicate construction of the clothes...it was hard to make a choice, but in the end the Florrie Print Kaftan caught my heart with the calm colors of the sea and the horizontal lines.
My Asian beauty was inked with Memento 'Teal Zeal'. I made a custom mix of micro beads to create her headress. She was matted and mounted above the horizontal strips of the custom rice paper. There are 5 different patterns and also a couple of strips of Basic Grey cloud paper.
I added: the journey is the reward. And that truly is the answer. I hope your journey today is filled with creativity. Thanks for stopping by.

Love those strips of paper Susan! I just want to run my fingers over them! Your lady is beautiful and glows in the light sparkling in her 'hair'! Wonderful sentiment!

AMAZING! (I know Anne will love this Asian design when she sees it!) I think the micro beads for the hat was pure genius! What a beautiful mixed media feel you achieved as well! A real WOW card!

I know ... I had the same thought about needing another job ... I think if I had that Kaftan I would wear it every day (although I used to always tease my Mom about wearing her Kaftan every night) ... perfect integration of the gorgeous design elements into your card ... fabulous inspired design.
