I combined the VSN challenge to use a vellum overlay with the Inspiration challenge of movie dresses. I chose this peach gown for inspiration: http://www.moviegowns.com/galleryind...g2_itemId=1373
I used an old PSX dress template to make the undergown in Blush Blossom stamped in Groovy Guava with Inkadinkado flourish stamp set. Used this set also embossed in copper on Brushed Copper c.s. The overlay dress is vellum with peach ribbon at the waist.

This is so outstanding! That dress is to die for and your embossed bg is so magnificent against the vellum! This is the runaway winner, that's for sure. This is beautifully executed and the presentation is exquisite!

Oh wow! This is fantastic! What a gorgeous layered gown! This is so perfect for both challenges (I hadn't heard of the newest VSNMini, so thanks for the heads up!) I love every detail of this wonderful card!

Oh wow! This is drop dead gorgeous! I don't recognize what that is you used for the pattern, but I do love the results! The vellum overlay is so soft and pretty and the stamping you did on the dress is absolutely incredible! The copper bg is so rich and elegant. I agree with Anne... if this were a contest... this one's at the top! Wow!

This is so pretty. I love the vellum overlay. I think I used to have a dress like that. So elegant. The copper on copper is beautiful. Really nice look. TFS a terrific challenge dress..
