You're Lovely at 50


One of my co-workers is celebrating one of those dreaded milestone birthdays next week and she is very stylish, very trendy and I knew that the Waltzingmouse Stamps You're Lovely set would make the perfect birthday card for her. 

The beautiful dress form stamp can be used to make almost any style of outfit dependent on the patterned paper you use to piece it with.  I went black and white with some raspberry fizz highlights on this one and I love how it turned out.  I used some black and white papers I have had forever and added a few little sparklies around the waist just to bling it up a bit.  I used IO Cover a Card Screen for the background and also a cuttlebug embossing folder.  So, do you think this would depress someone on their 50th birthday?  Not me if I had that pretty figure!

Excellent card. I would have liked a card like this when I turned 50. Love the brown and pink, and all the little elements that pull this card together. The bling belt is perfection.
