Dress Up Inspiration

Hello!

I'm playing along with the Papertrey Ink 9th Anniversary Celebration.

The challenge is to create a new project that is inspired by

a piece of clothing/outfit from our closet or an online clothing retailer.

I was inspired by the colors & design of this dress.

(I photographed my card with a printed copy of the dress.)

The flowers & sentiment are stamped with Onyx Black ink & clear-embossed.

Supplies

Ink:  Onyx Black

Other:  Clear-Embossing Powder, Seam Binding, Foam Adhesive

Heart & Love

Hello!

It has been a while since I've made a TAG-CARD.

This one is top-folding, and a tag is also added to the inside for a handwritten message.

Three distress inks were applied on the SSS-Tag, and the SSS-Die-Cut Heart was adhered.

The SSS-Love sentiment is clear-embossed and inked with the same distress inks.

(Every time I use pink, I am reminded of my Sweet Mom.)

I'm playing along with the following:

 (Worn Lipstick Distress Ink is my Hint of Red.)
