"Midnight Prom" card





Hello, I had so much fun making this dress card. I used Bo Bunny paper, scallopped the edges, used one of the journalling tags , cut it in thirds, and put it on backwards; the brads are Recollections. I made the dressform by hand, layered one by one some pink ribbon ( gifted to me), added a different ribbon for the belt, put a beautiful silver button ( gifted), wrapped some gorgeous black organza(gifted) and made a tie at the shoulder, added a flower from the skirt. Used some shimmering gold embossing for the body, and a prima say it in pearls for her necklace ( cut out a tiny section). For the inside, I used the remaining tag, punch out the corners using my new MS double loop all around the page punch and cut off the remaining pink card part. I am really happy with the results; I wanted it to be classy , but cool.

I made the dress, loved it. added my papers, put the dress on, looked at it and it was ok, but not WOW...then i decided to put 3 holes, add the same organza I used for the top, and some brads, and then the magic happenned....my hard work paid off and I loved it !!! makes my day...Bye ...
