Merci

Good morning all!  Can't  stay away from the teal card for too long you know!  I have used it here for my background embossed with the Garden Lattice Embossibility folder.  Atop that, on white card, I have stamped the JustRite Fragrant Garden background using a clear Perfect Medium pad and heat embossed with Cosmic Shimmer True White embossing powder.  It is difficult to see in my pic, but it adds a lovely textural dimension to the card in person.  I cut an Asian border in white card and added it to the left of the stamped background.  I used white silky crush ribbon and wrapped a piece around and tied a double bow.  I added a matching teal Dazzler and two pearl stick pins to my bow.  I cut the dressform out of black card and embossed it to bring out the detail.  Be sure to use wax paper when cutting this one so it is easier to remove from the die (sandwich the wax paper between the die and the card before cutting).  I glued the dressform to the card and mounted the bodice on foam for dimension.  I stamped the tag and sentiment from the French Frills set by JustRite in black on white card.  I coloured the flowers with Broken China distress ink and cut it out with one of the small dies from the Resplendent Rectangles set.  I cut one more of these dies out of black and cut it in half to add to the top and bottom of my tag as a shadow accent. I added some flatback pearls to my tag corners and to the dressform as a necklace.   I finished the card with Cosmic Shimmer white PVA glue dots around the edge as a frame.  Finished dimensions 6 1/2" x 8 1/2" in size.
