Cameos have always reminded me of my Grandma. In fact, when I was in Junior High, she gave me one of her cameos, and I always felt so elegant when I wore it.
I wanted to capture that elegance in my card design for the Appearance of Cameos Challenge at the Moxie Fab World blog. I used the beautiful cameo image from Artistic Outpost's Jane's Countryside Collection.
The inspiration for my card design came from Eva Dobilas' gorgeous card at CASE Study. I loved the layout and the big bow (which usually scare me) ... however, I used some gorgeous silk ribbon from the Stamp Simply Ribbon store that produced such an elegant bow. Papers are Webster's Pages Hollywood Vogue ... I finished with a black jeweled flourish.
Grandma would be proud.
this is so elegant and beautiful!!
