My creation is using the Think Pink fight like a girl stamp set. I am working on a few cards for the girls at DH work and this is perfect. I started out with some classic white cardstock that I stamped the dress out in using memento tuxedo black ink. My order of the new Color Made Easy collection came in the mail so I was happy to pull that out, this is the Poppy Collection. My dress is colored using the matching copic collection Poppy. For the panel in the sketch I wanted some feminine flair so the beautiful white scalloped lace trim was the perfect touch of feminine flair. Tied off my ribbon using the Poppy Collection melon color. Added some of the beautiful finesse swirls pearls, these are so hand as you can cut them and fit there in tight spots if you want and I really like that. Little bit of fairy dust to the dress and a few pearls and voila!
To Twinshappy: This is just what I needed for a birthday card. It is feminine, flouncy and just beautiful for my step-daughter. She is hard to make a card for, at least for me anyway. Sure I could find one in the store but who wants to do that when I can make my own and people appreciate that more anyway. Your card is lovely. Thank you.

This is so very delicate and soft. Love that you kept the layout simple so your beautifully colored image could shine and those sweet pearls and elegant lace trim really take it over the top! This is particularly sweet for me as my mom is currently finishing her treatment for breast cancer. Love this!
