All Dressed Up....


...with somewhere to go?
It's coming up to that time of year..weddings (especially a certain important one in April) Do you know anyone who has received an invite? Maybe you could send them this card as a congratulations on getting to hob-nob with the hoi polloi! It would also suit Royal Ascot Ladies Day, an Investiture or just a special occasion of any kind.
I used a twisted easel base ( by the way I have developed another twisted easel which I'll preview soon) and Dovecraft papers from last year. I cut a very elegant hat from Bazzill and decorated it with some sheer polka dot ribbon and a WOC cherry blossom bloom. A pair of gloves cut from white Bazzill were trimmed with a narrow ribbon bow and a teeny flower cut from some trim. The hat and gloves were adhered to a central panel on foam pads, and some WOC blooms adorn the top section of the card.
A scalloped oval holds the 'All dressed Up' sentiment, which was adhered to a punched border trimmed with more sheer ribbon and a bow. A scattering of teeny flowers completes the card.
Carts used:
Hat, gloves & sentiment- Forever Young
Scalloped oval-A Child's Year
Thanks for dropping in!
