Hello there blogging friends: My teammates and I over at SHOPPING OUR STASH have a new challenge for you to play with this week, our theme this time is DRESSES, we want to see dresses, formal or casual and everything in between so, go and SHOP YOUR STASH and come join us in our gallery, we can't wait to see what you create.
This card was made with one of my most favorite die sets from Stampin' Up, sadly retired but I bought it right when it came out back in 2013 in the Spring Mini. I only bought the dies because it's truly amazing the fabulous combinations and designs that you can get from them.
I die cut this dress with black card stock and then die cut it again with some very bright electric pink glimmer paper to create a little jacket and the trim on the bottom, a thin piece served as a belt.
It was pretty just as it was but I thought it needed a bit more bling so I added a "few" pink Rhine Stones to the top and the skirt. The embossing folder is from The Paper Studio, I added a die cut layer with pink vellum to kind of frame it a bit more, the sentiment is from a Power Poppy set called Marcella's Mix Tape Vol. 1, stamped with Neon Pink ink and clear heat embossed, then fussy cut, wish there was a die set for it.

This is how the INSIDE of my card looks like.
The sentiment is from a retired SU set called "Perfectly Penned" and the fireworks image from "The Ton" stamp set called Pyrotechnics, love this very realistic images of fireworks. The top lacy image is from a SU set called "Delicate Details"
So there you have it, hope you are inspired to come and play with my teammates and me over at the SHOPPING OUR STASH gallery, don't forget to check out their fabulous creations on each of their blogs for even more inspiration.

Oh my gosh this is adorable, I don't remember that die but you really don't need a stamp it works well without it, Awesome design too.
so fab and of course it's my FAVORITE color!!! :)
Wow! What a dress! Party, party! So cute with the glittery jacket and the rhinestones. Love how you framed it with the pretty embossing folder background, too. I'm tempted to drop everything and play along with a certain stamp I have, but darn sun is out today and we have other plans. All these challenges are so inspiring! I absolutely love your darling card, Maria!
This is absolutely stunning, Maria! Such a cute die cut, and those rhinestones are placed perfectly! Wow!

Such a fun card! Your dress is both conservative and flashy. Love the splash of shine and the splash of pink.
I remember those dies! Sweet polka dot pattern.
This is really pretty and I love all the bling :) I also love the stylish interior to the card,

Super cute and girly! HAHA a "few" rhinestones... Maria, I get the feeling you do NOTHING half-a$$ed! Love this, and it couldn't be more perfect. The inside is absolutely dreamy! There is something that just makes me happy about purely-girl cards!
So cute! Love the little dress and jacket.
Hi Maria, what a cool card, the dress looks fantastic and all those rhinestones!
Thank you very much for joining us at the bastel-traum Challenge.
Hugs and good luck

oh my gosh, we both used the same dies to make cards for this challenge! LOL I love the little jacket you created for your dress and all that bling looks fabulous! I love the embossed background too as well as the inside. I really need to play with this die set more often as it hasn't seen light of day for a couple years or more!
Love the pink and black color combo; too cute!!!
Thanks for entering the Crafter's Castle March Challenge! -Tasha
