Oh so classy.......

I've got another 'non-Christmas' card for you today. This one is a shortfall card (the front is narrower than the back) I cut the front of the card to 3 1/2" and punched the edge with an EK Success punch. I then matted some paper from Design Objectives Born To Shop, Bubbles A4 pad onto blue card and adhered it to the inside back and the front of the card. I then cut a panel of blue card, matted it onto white, then adhered a piece of star patterned paper to the blue panel. This was then trimmed with a punched piece of cardstock with blue striped paper adhered to it. I wrapped blue velvet ribbon around the striped paper and added a bow and a large Prima bloom.
I cut a dress form from black cardstock, adding a dress cut from pink card and rose-patterned paper. The completed form was adhered with foam pads to the left hand side of the panel. I cut a scalloped oval from blue cardstock, added a white oval with the sentiment 'Oh so classy' created with rub-ons (oh so) and black cardstock, then adhered it to the top right of the dress form slightly overhanging the front of the card. A smattering of pearls complete the front of the card.

The inside of the card has a simple piece of white card matted onto blue cardstock for a sentiment panel.
Carts used:
Dress form & dress- Nifty Fifties
Scalloped oval-A Child's Year
Plain oval-George
'Classy'-Forever Young
