As soon as I saw the lace element in the dress, I reached for an oldie but goodie Hero Arts stamp, Lace Frame. I stamped and black embossed it on the purple cardstock. For the center portion of the stamped image, I used a Spellbinder die to cut it out, so I could stamp the sentiment. Another Hero Arts stamp, Special Time, was embossed in gold. I love this font - it looks lovely with the lace. I mounted that whole piece onto black cardstock.
I knew the background had to be lattice, so I took the Hero Arts Lattice Background and stamped it in black on the same cardstock, cut it into four equals portions, and mounted it on a black card base.
For the final touch, as in the dress, I used gold and teal sequins to bring out those color elements.
I will definitely use the die cut technique with the lace stamp again. It really matches the frame perfectly.
Thanks RIC for another fun challenge!
As always, I love reading your comments!

Beauitufl craftsmanship and design!! You have used that Lace Frame so perfectly for this inspiration, Marcy! Love that Lattice-stamped background, too! The gold embossed sentiment and sequins have captured the essence from the dress details! So glad that you join the fun with us at Runway Inspired challenge!
Umm, yea, I'd say it worked! It's such a fabulous interpretation of the inspiration photo, Marcy! Love how the lace frame works so perfectly with that die-cut shape, and your gold and teal sequins finish the card off beautifully! LOVE IT! ♥
Such a gorgeous card, Marcy!
What a lovely interpretation, Marcy, much more wearable than the actual dress, imo! :)) Beautifully done!
What a fab take on the inspiration Marcy! I love how you used the lacy frame in your design!
Perfect choice and combination of stamps for this card - that lace frame is divine!! Love the scattering of sequins and the gold embossed sentiment too! Thanks for joining in with us at Runway Inspired Challenge!
