My nephew and his fiancee's bridal shower is tomorrow and I made them this card. This is how I made the dress: I ran a piece of vellum cardstock through the Big Shot using the Manhattan Flower Die Folder. I then ran the vellum through the Big Shot using the Scallop Circle Die and then cut the dress out with a pattern I got from Patty Bennett. I layered the background of the card using Pink Pirouette c/s, then Pink Pirouette DP, then layered a dotted pattern from the Printed Window Sheets. I colored in a flower from the Pretties kit using a Pink Pirouette inkpad, then layered with a flower from the Filigree brads and added a pearl on the top. I colored in the saying using Pretty in Pink and Basic Black markers, and punched it out with a large oval punch. Thanks for stopping by; have a great weekend!

This iis the nicest "dress" I have seen so far.........others are pretty "common". Love your use of the Impressions Folder to give texture to the dress and the background along with the use of the Eyelet boarder punch ---perfect combinatilons! TFS

Oh I would SO wear that dress if I were getting married! Well, not if it were made of see-through vellum, but you know what I mean. Simply gorgeous and what a clever and creative idea you had!!
