Angelique

Challenge no 5 at let's get shabby is a true dare: "Our Challenge Five consists of a focus of handmade embellishment/s - it can be a few or just one, but it must be the FOCUS of your creation "

Had a hard time figuring out what to make, untill I received AMM's newsletter with a tutorial for making a corset. So all the credits for my embellishment should go to Larissa, for giving me this inspiration!!!

The corset was made with K&C and MME papers. Decorated it with feathers, lace, tiny roses, pearls pieces that were cut from a vine and also used a lot of distress ink. Inside the corset is a tag, with an extra photo and some journalling. The background paper is MME Bella Bella and a piece of cardstock that I shaped, all the edges are distressed and stamped with distress ink, and for the finishing touch I sprayed some glimmer mist.

Does any of you know Angelique? I used to watch these movies with my mom and just dreamt away during these incredible stories about this beautiful woman. Not to mention her husband "Jeoffrey".......

Since she was wearing corsets as well, I thought these photo's of here would perfectly match my embellishment. This is a tag, that's inside the corset.

Oh, here's this Jeoffrey guy! He had a scar on his left cheek. Soooo sexy!

This is the corset without the tag.

Sorry that it's not in dutch this time! Enne, hier ben ik zo lang mee bezig geweest, verder heb ik niks meegemaakt....


PS: I did not win the challenge, but was among the honorable mentions, which is a great honour also!!
