Fashion Inspired.... Me!!

I've been watching the Runway Inspired Challenge since it started but as I'm not so good with photo inspiration challenges, that's all I did....watch and swoon at the DT cards and fabulous entries, but here I am playing along with the third photo because those stripes and the peep toe shoes are just calling to me....



Seeing as the challenge ends tomorrow it's fair to say that I took a while to come up with this design and I'm pleased with it apart from the sentiment.... I know, I know I always moan about the sentiment but they give me such trouble! I either don't plan for it or it doesn't stamp well... I should have known white on black would be a pain in the butt too! It says 'Love You'...not sure what the squiggle is at the end :)

So there you have it my first fashion inspired card..... says the girl who's more at home in jeans and a fleece...Lol

Hope you like it too, thanks for looking :)

  6. What a great take on the challenge--chevrons and peep toe shoes. I like the sentiment. It seemed kind of dashing and cavalier. Didn't look smudged, until you mentioned it! Looks like I missed this one this week--that class is having me running!

  14. I've watched the challenge too and have yet to give it a go. Well done on dipping you "peep" toe in! You've come up with a fabulous design. x

  15. The peep toe is inspired! I was going to play in this one too but tried to make my own chevrons and failed miserably!
    I find the only way to do white on black is to emboss the white.

  17. I don't think I remember the last time I wore something other than jeans or pajamas...probably long enough that it doesn't fit anymore :) Just because we don't wear 'fashion' doesn't mean we can't ogle it though, good thing :)
    Love the peep-toe chevrons - brilliant! - and I like your sentiment, so there ;) We're our own harshest critics always!

  22. Your wonderful creativity inspired me to join in this challenge!! Love your windowed chevrons...black and white is sooo cool!! Like you, I am a jeans and tee shirt kind of girl(the only dress I've worn in the last 6 years or more, is a dress to my Hannah's wedding, and even THAT I fought...lol!!!)

  23. This is a fabulous card for a guy Jenny, perfect celeb lines and wonderful inspiration from the fan picture!

  24. Hah! Using my phone to comment as I have no Internet grr! Please excuse the typos, it should say 'clean lines' not celeb, and fab picture not fan! X

  26. Hi Jenny, It's wonderful, you're always so hard on yourself:0) Great take on the inspiration the recessed chevrons are gorgeous and the sentiment looks fine! Often you will see sentiments layered on my cards 'cos I don't stamp it perfectly, secret's out LOL I have a feeling the sqiggle at the end is a heart, flamboyant stylised writing, love it :0)That is one of my favourite sentiments sets. Happy crafting, hugs Gay xxx

  29. Hi Jenny!!!! I am with you on the jeans and a fleece. I just LOVE your take on the inspiration photo. Those shoes hurt me just to look at them! Love, love your open toe!!! Leave it to you to come up with something so clever! BTW, PTI white ink is fabulous. I'm just sayin'...
