My younger brother is getting married and I am thinking this is going to have to be part of his gift!
I started with the manila tag and added the layer of the sewing pattern paper. I cut the pattern to capture the bits I wanted on my tag.
Stamp the dress form onto sewing pattern using purple ink. Stamp button in black over the dress form. Cut out. Stamp the dress form in purple directly onto the tag with the sewing pattern applied. Attach the dress form over the stamped dress form. Stamp a row of the needle book along the top using purple ink.
The rest was a little sponging around the edges with Ranger Distress Inks - Concord and piling on the lace, tulle, doily, pearls, flowers and accessories. In real life it is so much softer and pretty. :)
I dipped the flowers in the beeswax mixed with a touch of glitter. My flowers are flowers from the wedding section and it has a much heavier in the effect than the UTEE and paper flowers. I like the effect Tim had on his flowers much better. :)
Thanks for stopping by!
