The vintage patterns on the Johnny Tapete website (for today's Inspiration Challenge) are SO cool!! I was inspired by the big flowers prints, and the warm colors of some of them - the browns and golds were so luscious! This one really stuck with me.
I am sort of in love with the shaped card I made today, which is also for this month's Stampendous Shaped Card Challenge! I used the Isn't She Lovely dress template from Creations by AR for this project. The template comes with three pieces - a dress shaped card base, a dress front, and a dress bodice. I stamped a portion of the cling jumbo Dahlia on the dress front, then sprinkled Aged Gold Embossing Enamel on it and heat set from underneath. On the bodice, I sprinkled more enamel and heat set it. I fussy cut it all out, and sponged the edges. After I adhered it all together I tied an off-centered green satin bow (it is St. Patrick's Day after all!).

Taylor, you amazing woman, you!!! You took this out of the ball park with the splash of enameled gold, but the bold flower across the corner is INSPIRED!!! Seriously, someone needs to MAKE a dress like this!
