To me it looks like this couture dress, with a boa around its neck, is strutting down the runway. The dress is embossed black, colored with A.Amethyst marker, then highlighted with Dazzling Diamonds. The "runway rail" is made with the wrought iron punch. I printed the vellum "couture" from the computer. The boa was pushed through the paper with a needle. The hard part was after wrapping it around the neck, then pushing that end back through the hole that already has some boa in it -- I had to use that little tool in the sewing section for repairing snags in fabric -- know what I mean? Though this stamp has been in my cabinet for ages, this is the first time I've used it -- fun!!!

I've been "covetting" this set since I made my first card with it at an upline meeting and FINALLY got my grubby little hands on it about 2 weeks ago, so I'm with you on the "fun" set part!!! You're card is truly beautiful. TFS:-D

I love how you did your dress -- it just sparkles and looks like it should be on the runway. I also especially like how you did your vellum, and how you picked the most "perfect" font for this style -- way to go!!
