Super challenge! Had the idea of what I wanted to do last night, but it took forever to find a pic of the inspiration on the internet. Finally found one pic: http://www.reelclassics.com/Musicals...y_pubstill.jpg
So my card is inspired by My Fair Lady, and Eliza Doolittle's black/white dress.
I have to admit, some of this was already done. I made a similar card (not posted in my gallery) a while back and when I do one I like, I usually stamp extras of the images. All I had to do, was punch, arrange in a layout, stick together and add the stickles.
All images are stamped either w/ black ink on white c/s or w/ white ink on black c/s. The bg squares are all punched w/ the same flower punch and assembled in a split negative manner (black on white and white on black). Then the squares were lined up and attached to a white card.
The dress form image is on foam tape and had black stickles on the image and all around the border. The bg squares have clear (stardust) stickles in the centers. TFL

This is beautiful. I really like the split negative. That is such a great punch. This dressform stamp is AWESOME. I am seamstress too so this type of stamp is right down my alley. Great card. Very striking...
