Today's card is for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge. The hat image is from Dragonflies and Sunflowers. The shoe image I received from Susie at Die Cut Dreams as a freebie. The tube of lipstick is from a coloring book! I got the idea for this card from watching old black and white movies which I adore. I was thinking of Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Ingrid Bergman. The fashions make me absolutely swoon in their movies. The brooch that Ingrid Bergman wears in Casablanca has me mesmerized.
This card was sponged with Rangers Tea Dye Ink. I used red chalk for the flowers, hat band, and lipstick. There are gold brads used on the corners. I used a lot of diamond stickles that does not show up in my photos, but boy IRL it has the most awesome cast on top of that tea dye ink. I wish you could see it. I put some real feathers on my hat too. I made the flowers you see here on the hat and shoes. They are made with tissue paper and sponged and stickled. My tutorial or these flower is at my blog. The envelope is a 6 x 6 and can be found at Priscillastyles Store.

Don't you just love that PATP set. Do you have all of them yet? You sure pulled your Bearzi nose outta the bookz to pull together this beauty! Even real feathers! And the sparkle up close and personal must be wonderful - even in the photo it looks great. RYPH
