Stampin’ Up! Dress Up

It has been so time since I used my Stampin’ Up! Dress Up Framelits (retired), and I try to not miss an opportunity to use them.  This week on Splitcoaststampers.com, the featured stamper is Kathy at MochaFrap.  As I’ve shared before, other members of the site choose a card to CASE from the featured stamper’s gallery.   Kathy’s gallery is full of whimsical artwork.  I chose this card to case as it features a similar die (Sizzix) .

Stampin' Up! Dress Up

To select a designer series paper to create my card, I researched current fashion trends and found this outfit that I like.
Stampin' Up! Dress UpIt was good to see floral outfits are in style!  The floral outfit was the reason I selected the Stampin’ Up! Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper for my design. This DSP has beautiful floral designs.  Here’s a picture of the paper.

Here are closeups of the cardigan and sentiment on my card.

I used Stampin’ Up! Basic Pearls for the necklace and cardigan buttons, and Copic markers to achieve the color I wanted.  I created the sentiment in MSWord and stamped the spool image over the sentiment.  The spool stamp is from the retired Stampin’ Up! Sew Suite Stamp Set.

The background designer series paper is from the retired Stampin’ Up! Sweet Stitches Designer Series Paper.  I have an extra, never been open, package of this DSP if there is interest, I’ll sell it to you.

Stampin' Up! All Dressed Up

Stampin Up All Dressed Up & Dress Up Framelits

The Stampin Up All Dressed Up stamp set and the Dress Up Framelits take me back to my childhood when I played with paper dolls.  It was such fun to dress and re-dress the dolls with their paper dresses.  That fun feeling comes back when using this stamp set and framelits.

The dress on my card share today reminds me of times when I would get all dressed up for Valentine’s Day and a special dinner with a special someone.  Those were the days (lol).

The beautiful Stampin Up More Amore Designer Series Paper was used for the first layer beneath the Red Glimmer Paper dress that drapes the dress form cutout.  A sparkling diamond necklace (just kidding – it’s a rhinestone necklace) rests upon the neck of the dress form.  Can you imagine how gorgeous you would look wearing this dress while sporting a fabulous diamond necklace?  (Imagination running wild!)

Here’s a picture of a closeup of the gorgeous necklace:

The Sale-a-bration Pool Party Sycamore Street 1/4″ Ribbon separates the dress from the “All” “Dressed” “Up” sentiment.  The tiny 7/8″ Scallop Circle Punch was used to cut out scallop circles on which to stamp the sentiment, and the circles rest upon 1″ squares that were cut out with the 1″ Square Punch.
