Dressing Up

Here's a card that is great for using up all of your scrap pieces of patterned paper ... designed by Judy.

Instructions

1. Cut a piece of green card 6"x8" and fold in half to make your card blank.
2. Cut a piece of cream card 5.75"x3.75", and stick to the centre of the front of your card blank.
3. On a piece of cream card, draw a triangle and cut out (approx 2.5" wide at the bottom and 3.5" tall through the centre). Cut 1" strips of patterned paper, and use the edge punch along one edge of each one. Stick the first strip to the bottom of the triangle, and then layer up overlapping each layer slightly (until the last strip is approx 0.5" from the point). Trim any overhang from each side.
4. Cut a bodice shape out of glitter card (roughly a square but with a slightly wider top, and then cut a "v" for the neckline). Glue the bodice to the top of your skirt.
5. Punch a flower from the cream card, and then colour with the clear glitter pen. Also use the pen along the scalloped layers of the dress.
6. Glue the hanger at the back of the bodice using red double-sided tape, and then stick the whole thing to the left hand side of your card blank using 3D foam pads.
7. Decorate your dress with pearls around the neckline and waist, and add your punched flower with a pearl in the centre.
8. To finish punch a circle from the green card, and layer up with a greeting. Stick to the right hand side of your dress.
