Dresses


This mini card uses this week's Play Date Cafe colors and the Wee Memories' "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" theme.  I've been watching Project Runway on DVD and made it work, one day you're in and the next day you're out (don't tell me who wins, I'm still a few seasons behind), and colored in the dresses with water color pencils and did a little bit of blending.  And since I've embossed the faux stitching I'm going to enter it in this week's Simon Says Stamp Challenge.

  

And that card happy young man of mine used a few of my random pieces (I had colored the Unity Life is Fabulous house in the colors for last week's Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger colors and then just couldn't get the card to work), but I love how he made this card especially for my husband, who's been working hard on our new house, complete with a vintage trailer- b/c we have one and it'll finally get to live at our house when we move.  There are a few more hours in the special Simon Says Stamp Challenge for children.


Materials: Stampin Up dresses, Hero Arts Cling Fabric background, Cuttlebug Just My Type stitching border embossing folder, blue and pink string, cream cardstock, water color pencils and blender pen, water color paper, EK success corner rounder, vellum, Studio G red ink, Versafine black ink
