All Dressed Up! and so much more!

As I was preparing for the March Stamp A Stack classes I ended up with several of these Negative pieces after cutting out the dress forms.  I have seen so many cute ideas using these that I thought I would give it a try too.  It was fun playing dress-up with my dress forms.  
The Specialty Paper that I cut the dress forms from is called ...

Natural Composition Specialty Designer Series Paper$12.95

  

It comes in a variety of pre-embossed patterns and it gives the card a look of wall paper or something similar.  The dresses were cut from the 

Dress Up Framelits Dies

Price: $24.95

Then I played with a variety of embellishments to "doll up" the dresses...ribbon, pearls, rhinestones, flowerettes, etc, pretty much anything that fit my fancy.
