TaDa! Clementine's Challenge Ensemble

When I first looked at the assorted pieces for this challenge I immediately thought 'wedding', and then I thought that Marti might be thinking that too, so then I decided on 'fairy princess'. But as you can tell that didn't quite work out, so I suppose I'm back to 'wedding', although I would like to think that this dress would also be appropriate for a fancy night out on the town, perhaps to an opera and dinner at an exlusive five star restaurant. (Hint, hint Joey B.)

Here is what I did use - all the beads, the ribbon, the rosettes and the gold twine. I did not use the paper or the gold wire although I would have used the gold wire for fairy wings had I gone in that direction. The dress has tulle underneath which is why it is kinda puffy and it is hand beaded. When I first envisioned my design it was a two piece, but I think this is better.

If anyone has any suggestions on footwear that doesn't require knitting, please let me know!

I hope you enjoy, please be sure to leave a post and and let me know your thoughts. And while I will obviously win, please be gentle with Marti, she trys. (teeeheee!!!)
