We are dressing up the gallery for Toni's Ways to Use It Challenge today. I chose this Bugaboo digi that I've never used. I think she looks rather fashionable in her high heels. But to really dress up my card, I stamped these two-step Waffle Flower dresses all over the background. I was never as skinny as this girl, but I do fondly remember when buying jeans didn't make me cry.

I'm not too fond of having my photo taken anymore either. On top of the Covid pounds I haven't been able to get a hair cut since before Christmas! This gal looks mighty fine to me! Lovely card!

I don't know whether to laugh or cry because your sentiment hits way too close to home. LOL. But I love your fashionable lass and the dresses make an awesome bg. Great card and a really fun bday card for someone.

How fun, Jen! This gal does look rather fashionable now...however, if she eats that whole quadruple dip ice cream cone she may soon be crying over her jean size! I love the dresses stamped all over the background! Great challenge card!

Love the background!
My problem with jeans last year was that I dropped a size with all that cycling to work, and the store I always bought them in went out of business. So I was left trying to source new ones that fit through mail order only - that did nearly make me cry.

I hope she finds a fun place to go!!!! Or a swimming suit or trying on last summer's clothes. Oh my. This is certainly very fun! I would say lay off the ice cream for sure, although it is my favorite food group.
