Dress Form Birthday

Hi all, here I am with a little card to share with you!
This is for a friends birthday & it just kind of made itself!


I hadn't ever looked at the Scrapbooking Papers before today but
I was more than delighted with what I found!
The die cut dress form is part of a goodie box I got from Craftwork Cards.
I embossed it with my Cuttlebug Swirls folder then inked with
Antique Linen, Pumice Stone & Old Paper distress inks!
I mounted the dress form using foam tape for a bit of dimension.
The flower was cut using  Spellbinders Classic Circle dies.
The lace pearls & buttons were all from my stash!
the sentiment ticket is from The Crafty Pad Designs


I used the negative of the die cut dress form & inked inside the card.


The envelope got the same treatment!


Another little side view just to let you see the dimension.
Thanks for popping in!
