Simple and Layered Dress Form Card [MIM #62]


I love seeing "before and afters" and this week's Papertrey Ink Challenge has a similar flavor. The challenge is to make a simple card, and then step it up to a more involved card using texture, dies, layers, elements. The background on the card above was masked over a ticket die so the ticket stamp could be featured.


For the stepped up card, it was fun to let loose with the elements (not something I'm used to, or comfortable with doing). The layers, swiss dots texture, dies, brads, and ombre floral arc make this card more involved than the first one, while retaining the same basic dress form and ticket design.


This was a fun challenge to do ... thanks for looking!
