Dynamic Duos....Fashionably Late Birthday


Happy Saturday Peeps! 

Time for a new color challenge on the Dynamic Duos Blog.


I wanted to use some of my new toys for this color challenge. I pulled out my Stampin Up Dress Up Framelit Dies and the matching stamp set "All Dressed Up". So much cuteness!!!!
I found these colors in some retired DSP from last years SAB.


I used Crumb Cake card stock for the base and also some Pool Party card stock. The Lucky Limeade color comes into play within the DSP.
I used the Oval framelit dies in pool party and embossed with the hounds tooth EF.
I added the trim around the oval by cutting some strips of Crumb Cake using one of the edgelit dies from the "Finishing Touches". I pieced it around the oval, love the look.
The sentiment is from the All Dressed Up set and I masked off the portions I wanted to use and used my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig to line it up.
I added a flower cut from the Flower Trim and added it to the waist of the dress along with a few pearls.
I then finished it off with some pearls in the corners.
Be sure and hop on over to the Dynamic Duos Blog to see what the rest of the team did with this pretty colors!

Thanks for stopping by today and 
HAPPY STAMPING!!!

Vicki

The retired paper is perfect for this challenge and a great choice for the dress! The houndstooth background embossing is fashionable as well. The addition of the flower and pearls are the perfect girly touch! It's all so lovely!
