I chose to work with a new set from Impression Obsession by Peggy Jo Ackley called Sew Happy. I stamped the dress form on a white "Swatch" from Inchie Arts using Memento ink... my first impression was lined up at the 2-1/4" mark along the top of my MISTI. For the second impression I also used Memento ink (Desert Sand?), moving the matboard down slightly and over to the right about 1/4". I colored in the shadow outside the original outline with a matching Copic marker, then colored in the first image. So the dress form didn't look like it was floating, I added some connecting lines from the feet back to the feet of the shadow. The background is watercolored with some of the smaller stamps stamped randomly on some Canva-Paper.

Dina, this is so beautiful, and I love how you've done the Shadow Stamping tutorial so clear and used it so perfectly with the dress form. I used to have one of these (but not an antique one). I love it! Hugs! xoxo
