613 Create-1960 Couture Style Hat

Happy Sunday visitors, and friends! Welcome to the newest card post for 613 Avenue Create Challenge blog!

 Today I'm very lucky to showcase a card using a Digi image by our sponsor  Rick St. Dennis called 1960 Couture Style Hat.

For this challenge it's Anything Goes!
With this beautiful lady I knew I wanted to keep the whole project black and white. I grabbed my Provocraft Gypsy and went to work finding swirls and flourishes to embellish the card with. I also thought some feathers would add some different texture.
Here's a close up of the image and embellishments. I added clear glitter glue to the white pieces and black glitter glue to the black pieces. I thought a shiny slide and some soft ribbon would be a nice finishing touch for this little lady.
