My little DT creation, may not be up to Ricks standard just yet (lol), but I think I made a decent effort, using some deliciously wicked images you can find at Stitchy Bear Stamps.............
So, the images I used are from the 'Which Witch Silhouette Pack', and I'm not sure if I actually went wild with them, but I did get quite a few on there..........17 to be precise! I wanted a little break from the whole Halloween deal, so as these ladies appear to be deliciously 'wicked', I thought I'd use them for a 'Wicked Birthday' card.
I'm not really sure where my mind was when I created this (probably in the gutter!), but I had this idea that I needed to create some sort of fishnet stocking and garter............hence the eons of embroidery floss and frilly trim! You know when you have what seems like a good idea? Well 30 minutes into sewing a fishnet background................maybe not such a good idea! Anyhow, I'm pleased with how it turned out so I can't complain.
No colouring on this card obviously, so I made the effort elsewhere with the sewing. The flower is also handmade by using the trim, and adding a little bling and a pin. The DP's are from Martha Stewart and the sentiment is printed from my PC.
Go check out the other wonderful DT creations at the OSSAT Challenge Blog, some using Rick's images. You won't be disappointed, and if you wish to join in the challenge, there are of course goodies up for grabs.
I am now off to hunt down some challenges, as I seem to have lost the list I'd already made (duh!)
Enjoy the rest of your weekend and a Happy Thanksgiving to those of us in Canada.
