I took inspiration from Neva's use of most the images in the stamp set and, instead of doing a stair step fold card, I did three stripes of fun papers and ribbon across the back ground. I changed the shape, the colors, and the sentiment. I added lots of Stickles so that my scissors would look more realistic and the dress would look a bit fancier.
I really love Neva's gallery - I enjoy seeing how many challenges she can cover with one card (some challenges I have never heard of even - she has major connections), and I adore her comments which are always sweet and encouraging. I could have picked 10 cards to case!!!

Very pretty, Nancy! I just love those scissors and have a small collection of them that I put in a scissor box my sister made for me that is so pretty.
You made such a wonderful card for Neva. Yes, Pamzi's family is in great turmoil at the moment over the twins/triplet matter. LOL

Oh, WOW, WOW, WOW!!! Nancy, you combined so many fabulous elements in this set to create a stellar card! I love how you added fibers to make this more realistic and Stickles to dress it up. I'm going to have to {ahem} borrow some of your fantastic ideas the next time I use this set!!!!!
