This is for today's SKETCH CHALLENGE # 314, Tuesday's COLOR CHALLENGE # 304 - Red, White, Silver/Gray, and Monday's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 306 - Stickles Painting.
I have more layers on this card then I think I have ever used. LOL.
My images and sentiment are from a set called "SEW WHAT" which will be released next week from MARKS FINEST PAPER. I stamped my images in Momento London Fog then colored with copics and covered the top portion with stickles then traced the outlines from the skirt portion with my spica glitter pen. I stamped, colored and cut out the thimble and popped it up on panel 3. Panel 4 is also up on dimensionals. Panel 2 is embossed with Cuttlebug Victorian folder. The sentiments were stamped with momento Ladybug Red. Hope you like it, now let's go to work.

Oh my word, Neva... this is amazing! Years ago my aunt and her best friend owned a dress shop. They made handmade formal dresses and bridal gowns. Her daughter and I were about the same age and we would play in the shop while her mom worked. I can still remember marveling at the amazing beaded dresses that hung on the dress forms. All of them were hand beaded! You have brought back a great memory for me with this card! Thanks so much!!
