I used a Spellbinders die for the dressmaker. To give it a metal feel I covered it with Platinum colored Ultra thick embossing enamel and heat embossed. Since the ladies on the background DP has dresses with spots I wanted to give my dressmaker a similar look. I also wrapped a bit of tulle around it and added a black bow as a belt. I mounted the dressmaker on foam onto a panel of black and kraft paper to create a layered effect.

Very classy Pia! I love the background print and you worked wonders with the dressmaker. From the picture I would have thought it was metal. Great use of the tulle and bow. Another beautiful creation! As always, we love having you play with us at Inkspirational!
