There's tons of fun, prizes and 2 sketches to choose from - one intricate sketch and one CAS version of the sketch so everyone can play.
Today I tried to go somewhat vintage. Not something I'm as comfortable with even though I melt when I look at vintage creations.
I chose to use Chic Boutique for my image and sentiment. I paper pieced the dress, added some copper sparkle to the stand and framed it with my Nesties 11 . The mat beneath the image was stamped with En Francais and the sentiment was done the same. I sponged, added some copper flowers, stickles, bling, ribbon sent to me by Priscilla - thanks Priscilla - and popped up the image, framing and 1st panel on dimensionals. I also paper pierced the first dp panel and embossed the second dp panel with the Fleur De Lis ef.
Thanks so much for stopping by and hope you have an incredible week!

I know you are wondering where I have been - and really you don't want to know! I really like this sparkly vintage beauty! Very pretty card - the gems and different textures really make it and that charm is awesome.

The paper piecing on the dress form is such a perfect touch and your DPs have that wonderful soft vintage feel! Adorable shoe charm, too!!
