This is for Cathy's fun "shaped card" challenge. I began by modifying a really old overalls template.
I completely covered metallic cardstock with a good glue stick, then attached the dp. After drying overnight, I placed the new template on top of the covered card and cut out the front and back.
I distressed around the edges using the edge of my blade, then punched small holes at the shoulder edge and joined the back to the front using twine. Oh before I joined the pieces together, I trimmed all the edges with gorgeous ribbon (RAK from Jody).
I added some faux stitching with a fine brown micron pen and liquid pearl buttons.
Thanks so much for looking, it is great to be back getting inky.

Oh, my gosh, this is the cutest thing ever! The papers you used are fantastic, and I'm so glad you're getting some use out of the ribbon. It looks darling!

So Susie, I wear a size 4...could you make this a little bigger so I can wear it. I have said before, you could be a fashion designer. This is such a fabulous shaped card. What a wonderful shade of green.
