I haven't used my Dress form die for a long time, so this was a great opportunity. I cut 2 from white card, stained the base and top of one with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide, the other was trimmed to leave just the body, to which I glued some printed linen and trimmed to shape.
The DP was trimmed and pieced and I machine stitched the border, I used a Rose stencil with DIs and then stamped and clear embossed the G 45 and Tim Holtz words.
The rest of the DT have some fabulous inspiration for you, so please pop over to the main blog for all the details.
Have a great day,
Avril xx
