Dotty-licious Dress

When I saw the challenge for Polka Dots, A Bow and Pink over at The Pink Elephant this week, I couldn't resist having a go with this dress template which I've had in a box for ages waiting to be used.  
Coincidently it also ties in nicely with My Graphico challenge for shaped cards so it's a 2-in-1 for me.
I covered the skirt, front and back, in pink dotty-licious paper before scallop trimming the bottom and used plain black card which had been 'cuttled' with swiss dots for the bodice. 

After tying a small bow from some pretty pink dotty ribbon, a few pink and black adhesive gems and a wee flourish of feathers are all that's needed to add the finishing touches.

BookATrix & Photo Album

Here are another couple of BookATrix cards both of which have matching boxes.

The burgundy one uses more of the lovely Brenda Walton paper and some super leather effect burgundy card which is super quality for boxes.




I struggled to get a decent photo of the silver holographic box for the lilac feathers and flowers version and nearly went blind trying ... so decided not to torture you with it. I will be taking them to the Pony Show and hope not to bring them home again.

Another wee quickie project to show you ...


This is a photo album made using DCWV paper stack and papermania cardstock.
It was a good excuse to break open the Big Bite 2 I bought a few weeks ago.

The photo sleeves are simply self seal card bags trapped between the 2 pieces of cardstock ... cool huh? I should probably have popped a couple of photos in for display purposes ... WHOOPS!

I am going to enter it in 'This Thursday It's'... Challenge 6 which is to create something which is beautiful and useful.
I may be pushing the definition of 'beautiful' with this entry, but it definitely qualifies for useful.
I suppose it would also have been perfect for last week's 'Altered' challenge.
