Put aqua card base thru eb folder with versa mark on top, then gold embossed it. Next layer is dp paper with words and sponged edges gold. Paper pieced the dress, had parasol image colored in and cut out, popped up.

What beautiful technique and gorgeous results. This is so elegant and classically Victorian. I love your bold color choices and the gilded detail. Wonderful card - Rheannon will absolutely love this!

Oh my gosh DonnaJeanne this is brilliant. I love the background, it reminds me of vintage wallpaper or gorgeous heavy fabric. Your gown and parasol look gorgeous. Straight into My Favs!!! What a gem.

The colours are lovely - the background is beautiful looking with the embossing and gold, and gives a great vintage look. Some of the paper you've used for the dress looks like wonderful rich brocade!
