This card is one of those that I think just screams... girly! And, I love that about the extras added to give it that feminine touch. The construction is super easy peasy. I simply stamped my dress form on Flourishes Classic Ivory, colored with Flesh Tones 1, Flesh Tones 2, Water, Sky and Spruce Copic Collections grouped by Flourishes. Add some great My Mind's Eye Paper called Breeze, a Webster's Pages Sparkler, some great shimmery ribbon, a beautiful trim, some stitching, and you're almost done! I did use Spellbinders Labels Twenty for my shape that I matted my dress form on. I cut and embossed using my Grand Calibur and then, sanded the edges of the embossing to reveal the paper's white core. And.... done!
One more thing I did that you can see is I actually sewed along the edges of my ribbon to give it a tailored look! I figured that it fit the style!
