Wow, that is a beautiful sketch! The only problem was...I make cards. And this is clearly a scrapbooking layout! So I completely pared it down to the basics, and came up with this card set:
I hope the sketch inspires you to get crafty too! Check out all of the details at the Hambly blog :)
One more thing- I made a painting yesterday inspired by one of the new Fall 2012 looks. (I hope it doesn't bother any of you that I occasionally post non-card related crafts!)
Now, this chick has a glittery belt, and as much as I tried, I couldn't get the painting to look glittery (see above). So I did the next best thing:
(btw, some people ask why the girls I paint don't have faces. There are 2 reasons. 1. I paint fashion illustrations, so I want the focus to be on the clothes and not the girls. 2. Faces are hard to paint! Whenever I try to paint a face, it comes out a bit funny. I think I have only posted two or three paintings on this blog that had faces. If you want to see them, you'll have to go on a hunt through the archives!)
OMGoodness, I still dream of being able to do fashion sketches like this! I used to go through my mom's old Burda sewing patterns and just stare at the illustrations... Loved 'em! This is terrific and I'd love to see more!! ;)
