Journal Page

Morning and I have two posts today the first one is a journal page for the "Pretty in Pink" challenge at Unicorn.
B.paper,dress forms,heart and scissors cut from P.Paper all from a Craftwork Cards set a few years ago.
Background was created with distress ink through sequin waste,script stamp,sentiment and stamped ladies were all craft mag freebies-I stamped the ladies then stamped onto P.paper and paper pieced the dresses on a couple.The lines were created with elastic band wrapped round a piece of card and the stamped stitch borders were from HOTP from QVC would you believe 25yrs ago!!!The metal scissors and plastic pins were from The Works.

Wow so much going on here. I’ve only ever paper pieced once I’m too lazy to do it again so I can only admire this card. Love the colour.

Well, here I am behind again. It doesn't take long. I love what you've created here. Always loved dress form stamps and have a bunch of them. Awesome background. Yes, I would believe 25 years. I'm often surprised when I count the years. It doesn't even seem like I've been stamping that long!
