Gratitude - Creative Shopping

From time to time I just love to drag this picture out.  For one thing it makes me giggle and for another its my first ever attempt at altered art.  This dress was in a magazine - only $3500.00 I think.  I wanted it, I loved it, it was mine.  Unfortunately $3500.00 is out of my league and so is her figure.  But with a little creative cutting I owned it - and the pink shoes!                  Diane

That is awesome, Diane... You did a great job of your cutting and pasting!!!!! Yes---I'd say that is the best way to 'own' that outfit.... ha

Hugs,

And you look FABULOUS. Isn't it fun!! My Khrystibear and I get into doing stuff like that once in awhile. I think it does you good to pay attention to your own self once in awhile. It reminds you of who you are.

Hello Diane, that did make me smile! I own a pair of outrageous, beautiful shoes (they were really cheap in a sale)that I hardly ever wear but are out on show as they make my friends and I smile when we see them! Jane x
