I need to take a daylight photo of this tomorrow, but we were at a funeral today and it was much later than I expected when we got back home.
All these lovely red clothes and accessories could easily have come from my wardrobe, I have two red hats and currently one red dress, though not any shoes at the moment.
5 3/4" square base. Black layer is 5 3/8" and the DCWV flower paper 1/8" smaller. After layering them I punched one edge with the spiral punch. RubberNecker Belle stamped on watercolour paper with Versafine Black and coloured with H2Os. I used a white gel pen and a green Sakura Stardust pen to add details to the dress. Style sentiment is part of an HA birthday sentiment. Black gems, and Cuttlebug Vintage Corners made this a quick and easy card. No story, no baking, just me.

Are we classy or what? She's beautiful and has a perfect figure (one that I wish I had)! Sorry to hear you had to go to a funeral, hope your day is going better now. Stamping is a great stress reliever! Your creation is beautiful! TFS

Oh, my mom used to design dresses like that back in the 50's! They used to use yards and yards of material to make a dress in those days. This card is awesome; love the image and the layout!!!
BTW: I got my ODBD stamps today!!! I can't wait to get 'em inked up!! You'll see.

Wow, Sabrina, GMTA using this stamp!! You have really taken this lady to the 'max' - your card has the look of a fashion photographer's "shoot"! Love the tilt of your image with those vintage corners, and the flowered DP in the background is so subtle and perfect! Punching the edge was a really nice touch! This will surely bring a smile to Joyce's face!!

This reminds me of Vogue patterns. I think my mother may have had a few of those, but mostly she had children's patterns from McCalls, Simplicity, and Butterick. Can you imagine all the fabric that went into that skirt portion? This image is perfect for the challenge this week. I love the corners you've used.
