This night gown made me think of the Nestibilities Bead Oval die and I liked the aqua with the white for Christmas cards. The description of the item sure made me laugh too! You go GirlsÂ…catch his eye!!!
At Shady Tree Studio we are focusing on Christmas in July and there are lots of great ideas for holiday cards.
I used Copic markers to color the bell image (C1,3,5, BG11,15) and Stickles to add some sparkle to the ribbonÂ’s edge.
After cutting the image out I colored the very edge with a Marvy black marker and mounted it to the card with foam pop dots.
Spellbinder Beaded oval was cut first then I lined up a regular oval to cut and deboss the center and form a frame for the bell which is mounted on the next size smaller oval cut from the piece of cardstock that was cut out of the beaded center, the beaded oval is mounted on pop dots.
I cut a ½” strip of glitter cardstock from DCWV and inserted it under the snowflake design of the EK Success border punch to punch out only the snowflakes, I like the size of them and it’s just another way to utilize the punch. They are attached to the card with Aleene’s tacky glue and I used Aleene’s Paper Glaze to attach the half pearl to the corner flakes and a touch of Stickles to the flakes around the bell.

Can you imagine letting him 'rip off' your $145.00 night gown??? That's just crazy. Anyway, what a wonderful creation from your inspiration. I love this. Beautiful color.
