I was a tomboy and never played with dolls, so had no idea there were so many Barbies. She sure has an amazing wardrobe. I chose this beautiful gown called "I Dream of Winter" as my inspiration: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/39828777927874332/. I used two shades of mint - shimmer for the mat and sparkle for the diamond background. I covered each of the diamonds with silver stickles and the snowflakes and sentiment with clear Stickles. Added the sentiment. And now I have one card done for Christmas.
Edit: I just realized that even if I hadn't been a tomboy, I would never have played with Barbie because I was 12 when she made her debut. Geez, I'm old!

This is lovely, Priscilla! I've always loved that bg die when you use it. I was a tomboy, too, but I did have Barbie for rainy days, lol. And my mom made me take ballet...I think it was to keep me out of the trees and off the roof, lol.
