Red Carpet Fashion




It's time for a new challenge at Time Out, and this one is really a fun one. This time it is a Theme challenge: The Red Carpet. We'd like to see your creations that are inspired by Red Carpet Fashion. You can use the collage above for your inspiration, but you can also pick any Red Carpet Photo from any awards event at any time.

Important - Please note the following in order to qualify for the win: If you use a photo from the collage below as inspiration for your project, please tell us which one in your post. If you use a photo from anywhere else, please include it in your post so that we can see what inspired you.

We are generously sponsored by Picket Fence Studios with a $25.00 Store Credit as a prize for our Challenge Winner, who will also be invited to join us as Guest Designer for a future challenge.

We are joined by Carol Mayne of just me: c, and winner of Time Out #279 as Guest Designer. Check out her fabulous Red Carpet Project on the Time Out Challenge Blog.

I used Halle Berry's iconic 2022 Oscars dress from a special Elie Saab fashion show celebrating the designer’s 1001st season - Top middle photo above. If you enlarge the photo, you will see that the top of the gown is embroidered with a stargazer lily and leaf motif. I used Altenew's Build-A-Flower Stargazer Stamps & Dies to mimic that design. I placed the lilies on a background meant to give the feel of the netting that the embroidered flowers are attached to on in the gown, and the burgundy card base represents the bottom of the gown.

 Please head on over to the Time Out Challenge Blog where you can see what Carol and the rest of the Design Team has created for your inspiration. Come play with us. I can't wait to see your Red Carpet inspiration projects!
