I had way too much fun making the other card so decided to make another one for my aunt's birthday in colors she loves. As someone who has done a lot of sewing, I immediately fell in love with the Vintage Buttons embossing folder my dear friend Loretta gave me! I used cardstock that could be sanded, and I was thrilled with the effect. I pulled out the Tim Holtz Sewing Room die and cut the dress image out twice so the stand was in one color and the dress in the DSP. The dress really needed something else so after much trial and error, I decided the pearls worked best. Inked up the Label's 18 EF with antique linen ink to add to the vintage vibe of the card. The lace and buttons add to the vintage window boutique look I was going for.
