Dancing Dreams

Here's my first card as a member of the CAS Fall Design Team at Splitcoast Stampers.  Our challenge was to use shoes, any type, on a CAS (Clean and Simple) card. 

It's been several years since my daughter has taken a ballet class.  She is into Hip-Hop these days.  But I had this stamp set from CTMH (now retired) and I had the vision of this card in my head as soon as I knew what the challenge was going to be.

I used PTI's music impression plate to emboss the top of my cardstock.  I then stamped the ballet slippers in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with my copics.  I found the sentiment in another PTI set.  I then popped the whole thing up on my base.  In real life the colors all match but I guess there was something in the lighting that is making the base cardstock look darker.

I hope you will play along with this week's challenge.  You can find all the details HERE.
