Fusion Challenge – Dress Form

I love the image in today's Fusion Card Challenge … and the sketch has lots of great layers.

March27

I started by wanting to create something similar to the brick wall background.  I embossed kraft cardstock with my Gun Metal Embossalicious Folder and then added Brushed Corduroy and Festive Berries Distress Ink.  I had thought that would be my background, but it ended-up working out better as one of my panels with my metallic copper background.

Next I used the same Distress Ink combination to stamp my Eiffel Tower Dress Form from Crafter's Companion Paris Travels.  I added several of the Paris postmark images from the same set to give it more of a postcard feel like the photograph.  I framed it with a gold mat to pull in the feel of the lovely scarf and then added a coordinating Prima Flower.

I finished with a Flowing Happy Birthday sentiment and several Studio Calico Printshop Word Stickers.

  1. I love this Stephanie! I wanted to use a dress form on my card, but nothing I tried looked half-way decent. You, however…rocked it! Love the brick colored ink and all the distressing you did to create a great background pattern.

  2. Oh, I didn’t notice that the Eiffel Tower stamp was also a dress form. Good way to include it without it being overpowering.
    Thanks also for your kind comments on my card for the challenge.
