Dress Card

Hello blog friends!

Today I'm showing you a card I made for my 

Godchild, Andrea.

Andrea turned 4 the other day and there was a 

party on Sunday.

She is a very girlie girl and loves her dress up 

clothes and her Barbies.

I thought this card turned out perfect for her.

I already had a pattern that I had created for 

another project for the bodice of the dress,

so I traced that onto some card stock and cut it out.

For the skirt, I used a coffee filter.

I simply folded it a few times until it was the

size I needed, folded over the point 

that was the center of the filter,

wrapped it around the bodice and 

used ATG tape to adhere it.

I cut a scallop along the bottom and used

a gold pen to make dashes around the skirt to 

finish it off.

The 'belt' is some twisted cording/beading that

I had in my stash.

I had picked up a paper stack around Christmas

time for a very reasonably price, that was all 

gold foiled papers, the background paper is from that

stack, I don't remember the company name on it, but I 

picked it up at Michael's

The "Happy Birthday" is 

heat embossed with WOW

gold glitter embossing powder.

I think the card was a big hit,

I love how it turned out.

My niece said it was perfect for Andrea.

Thanks for stopping by today,

hope you will come again soon.

Until then, Happy Crafting!
