If only I could use the Dress Up Framelits to make new clothes for me. Well, I don't wear dresses all that often, but maybe I would if the Framelits could make me-sized clothes : ) I think the flourish stamp behind the dress is kinda wallpapery, I think it works with the '50s vibe.
The photo isn't that great color-wise (it's REALLY sunny today!) but I used the colors from Create with Connie and Mary:
It would be more awesome with Baja Breeze : p I miss my Baja Breeze! But I love the Raspberry Ripple, so there's that. I used last Friday's challenge from Sketch Frenzy Friday:

Love the Raspberry Ripple dress! And the flourish in the background is perfect! Great way to use the challenge colors! Thanks for playing the challenge at Create with Connie and Mary and for joining us at Sketch Frenzy Friday!
ReplyDeleteYes, although I made a dress like that for myself when I was in high school and that was the early 70's. Didn't have the pearls yet, though . . . I believe what was in style then was a choker - I remember a velvet ribbon that had a charm hanging from the top of the ribbon so it rested on the ribbon, if you know what I mean. But I love your card.
ReplyDeleteI love this card! and I agree- this style makes a great vintage dress! Great idea with the flourish image!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, love the vintage dress and the flourish is perfect behind it! Thanks for playing along with the color challenge this week on Create with Connie and Mary!
