Variations on a Theme

Mod3 This week's SCS Inspiration Challenge comes from the fabulous vintage and indie designs of ModCloth.com. ModCloth was founded by high school sweethearts, Eric Koger and Susan Gregg Koger, and is built on a foundation of love for vintage and retro clothing.  ModCloth features fabulous vintage designs along side the works from over 100 independent designers that thrive to keep combine vintage aesthetic with a bit of modern flair.

My card was inspired by this fabulous Variations on a Theme Dress.  I loved the neutral tones combined with the bold black accents.  The colors reminded me of the Communique Collection from Graphic 45.

I used this weeks Sweet Sunday Sketch as the starting point for my design.

I used one of my favorite die cuts, the Tim Holtz Ornamental Movers & Shapers shape.  In keeping with the vintage theme, I added a vintage pen, as well as a manual typewriter to my design.  There is an SRM Sticker that says Just a Note at the bottom, but it sort of gets lost in the pattern of the paper.  I finished my design with some vintage Sari Ribbon.

I hope you find inspiration.
