B&W inspired by Liancarlo

During Bridal Market week I poured over The Bride's Guide by Darcy Miller for her take on the new bridal designs. I fell in love with the dress below by Liancarlo. I adore the cascading petals - there is such a sense of graceful movement.

I was so drawn to this sense of movement and translated this into my Inspired Ink design of the week. The hand-pressed stamp work cascades from the upper edge of the layout. I chose black ink with milky acrylic hand-painted details on each petal. The strong contrast is softened by the white micah cardstock layer.

Curiosity led me to the Liancarlo website and I found this lovely encrusted bodice.

I couldn't resist adding a bit of sparkle!
