Springtime Dress

I love this idea! The Scallop Circle die, available in the current Autumn-Winter Mini Catalogue, has turned out to be so much more than a circle with a scalloped edge. Here it's been transformed into a cute springtime dress with a couple of snips and some ribbon.

My daughter was my "creative consultant" on this card, but I didn't take her advice and add a layer of black cardstock behind the dress. I like the simplicity of the layering, even to the point of using Bashful Blue for both the base card, the scallop oval punch around the greeting and the greeting itself. I just popped it up on dimensionals to remove it a little from the base.

The "belt" is just a strip of Whisper White 1/4" grosgrain ribbon, with a single flower from the Trio Flower punch attached with a Vintage Brad through the whole lot to finish it off.
