celebrate today!

I finally inked up a stamp set I bought from Crescendoh a while back.  I just love paper piecing these vintage little dresses.  Too much fun!  You need to check out the yummy goodies in the Crescendoh shop.  Very different quirky kind of stamps and art kits.
My card base is Baja Breeze.  I paper pieced the dress with some DP from The Little Yellow Bicycle Laundry Line collection.  I used my baja breeze reinker and a spray bottle to make my hand dyed seam binding (so much fun to make!).  I added a pearl accent to the center of the bow and the dress sash.  The sentiment is from PTI's Mixed Messages set. 

I am so happy you stopped by!
