March Fashion Challenge **WINNERS**

[blbabe1234]

What's in fashion for March? Sheer, thin fabric (think spaghetti strapped slinky dresses or silk camisoles). So basically we're starting to show some skin!

With that said, for my challenge, I'd like you to create a project that uses a neutral background (white, cream, black, brown, or tan); along with something that would be consider almost see- through. You can use transparency, vellum, a sheer washi or ribbon. AND...if you use ribbon or washi or borders on your project, make them skinny! (to represent those spaghetti straps).

Here is my example:


I chose a white background and a Creative Imaginations transparency that I used to mat my large photo. The "skinny straps" are the thin pattern paper strips.

So here are the rules:

1. Paper, Digi, Cards, and Crafts are all welcomed.
2. Please link the project to here in the thread.
3. Please submit by APRIL 3rd at 11:59PM CST (Please note the date. Since I'm late posting this, I'm giving ya'll a couple more days )
4. You may combine with another March Challenge if that challenge allows combining.
5. Multiple entries are allowed.

Please let me know which your "sheer" item is,  (if its hard to see)

One random winner will receive a $5 GC to ACOT.

Any questions - please ask!

And have fun!

[oceanbreezes423]

Love your page, but oooooh, another hard one for me. Using a solid background is not something I do very often, and not well. I will give this my best shot!

[average_kim]

Sounds like a great challenge!  Love your example, too!

Here's mine - I used a white background and have been wanting to use this "filmstrip" transparency for a couple of years now. My "skinny straps' is the washi tape around the green paper. This was such a fun challenge. Thank you Brandy.

This is awesome Carrie! Love that you though outside the box and used gold vellum, and the skinny letters. Gorgeous photo! Thank you so much for doing my challenge!

No spaghetti straps or slinky fabrics here unless you consider wool socks, gloves and wool coats slinky fabrics. LOL!  Perhaps doing this challenge will make me think warm thoughts   Time to check the scrappy supplies for something transparent.

I love that washi tape!  It works so well with the transparency and the photos.

I water colored on the tag and then stamped the sentiment on a vellum (sheer element) tag and tied the two together with embroidery floss (strappy element).

Oh my...this is BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE the watercolor behind the vellum tag. Using the embroidery thread is the PERFECT "skinny straps"! Thank you so much for doing my challenge!
