Thanks Dress Silhouette Card

So as you can notice I am on a roll with this "genre" of card making for the time being.  There is just something about the image that makes you want to make a bunch of cards with it.  This of course used the Silly and I got these quick sayings on circles on clearance so I used one of those on this card.  I challenged myself to use a Graphic 45 paper with this card and I think I did pretty well considering a dress doesn't go with much unless it's something dealing with fashion.

It's the Small Things Steampunk Card

So I had this template that I wanted to use, as you can tell by the other postings, and I was too lazy to hand cut it out of card stock so instead I imported to the Silly and then cut it from there.  Anyhoo here is my ode to Steampunk, the famous wings on a dress form.  I had some stickers hanging around and the one that I found that seemed right for this card is the saying "it's all about the Little Things".

So I cut out the image with black card stock and then dry embossed the top half and then colored it in so that it popped out at you.  I used some of Hambly Studio paper, still sad they are no longer in business, for the skirt and then used a teal diamond pattern paper as the background and cut out yellow wings to coordinate together with everything else on the card.

Birthday Dress Card

I must said I am most proud of this card for the moment since it took a lot of work to create the dress on the outside.  I had to break out the Silly for the dress outside then I had to use my most hated item that I have...glitter, and then I used cake doilies to make up the bottom half of the dress.  The paper on the front is flocked so it pulls in nicely all the different textures that are in play in this card.  The inside I made a big effort to use another piece of the paper from the outside but also use the color of the glitter into the inside of the card.  From there I just picked a font and a quote and printed it out on the printer.  Oh!  And cover up the top of the last doily I used a piece of silver ribbon.  I plan on making a couple of these, maybe just in smaller sizes, the big one was nice but I can do more with a smaller image.

Keep you Chin up Birthday Card

I made this card intending on giving it to a good friend at work, but for some reason I just couldn't part with this card.  Maybe it is the fact that Young Sir is the dog in the photo but I just couldn't part with it.  So instead I made him a different card, which I so totally didn't take a photo of, however I managed that, and kept this one.

I evem managed to do this whole card without the help of a machine.  Well the printer but that doesn't count since it was used to print the picture out with.
