Commission card


This is a card I made for a commission. The brief was a card for a 35th birthday with a fashion theme. The colour was left up to me. One of my fave combos is hot pink & black so I went with it for this card. I hand cut a dress & stand from pink glitter paper (dress) & silver mirri (stand). There is a beautiful dress on the Wedding Solution cart but it has a very large skirt & I wanted the dress to be slinky! I added a blowsy bow to the waist & tiny black gems as straps & a necklace. I added polka dot paper, Doodlebug velvet paper scalloped frame, a layered flower and the sentiment cut from black & pink glitter paper. I also added a bit of bling to the frame! I added a computer generated insert.
Carts used:
Frame- Wild Card
Sentiment- Lyrical Letters (Loup De Lou font)
Thanks for looking!
