Vintage Dress Form!

Hi everyone! Sunday once again and that means for me only 3 more working days of work left until my holidays..Woohooo! Can you tell I am excited..LOL!

With that being Sunday, it is time for another card creation for Jay Gee's Nook, plus it is the start of the new Challenge..did you all get time to enter the last one..so loved that photo inspiration and this months photo inspiration is no exception.


Here is my take on the photo.

100_5971


Taking Papertrey Ink, Spring Moss card stock, trimming to form a card and running the front of the card through my Cuttlebug, embossing it with the PTI, Picnic Plaid Impression Plate, setting this aside to work on the rest of the card. I took white card stock and the Button Card Die Collection also from PTI, running it through my Cuttlebug and cutting to form a die cut. Next, using the coordinating stamp set Button Boutique I stamped over the die cut to form a vintage feel card, the ink that I used was Stick Candy from Jenny Bowlin. I added some pink buttons to the die cut and set this aside. Using yet another die from PTI, this time the Signature Series: Dress Form and running through my Cuttlebug, this time cutting a die cut out of Sweet Blush card stock, I stamped over the dress form using the polka dot stamps from PTI, Polka Dot Basics 2 stamp set, this was inked with Sweet Blush ink. I assembled the card by firstly, adding some Blossom Twine around the card, then adhered a doily and positioned the vintage tag and dress form on top of the doily. To complete the card I added a sentiment at the base from the Signature Series: Dress Form stamp set.

I just love the Button Boutique stamp set and I know that in my holidays this stamp set along with many more that have not seen much ink will be used quite frequently.

Okay I cannot contain myself any longer I need to head off and see what Judith and Ange have created using the beautiful inspiration photo.

Make sure whilst you are at the blog that you check out the store...I know that the new line of Lawn Fawn is now in stock and going fast.

Lastly, before I head off, if you are looking for where to enter my Giveaway, you can do so HERE.
