A pretty frock!

I saw these gorgeous B Line dress stamps being demoed by Linda Brown and Linda Elbourne at the LB Craft stand at the Ally Pally show in April and had to add them to my wish list. When we visited LB in June as part of our mini Retreat trip to Bedfordshire, I had to buy them. You may have spotted them in a recent issue of Craft Stamper in an article by Linda Brown.

It took me until yesterday to get around to using these stamps and I made a card for a friend. I'm sorry the picture is a little out of focus, I only took one quick snap before I needed to get the card in the post.

I stamped the images in Ranger jet black archival ink on a sheet of K & Co matting card that had a natured themed design. This is actually textured card, so not the best surface for getting a really sharp image, but hopefully good enough to show the final result. I added more stamping from a Crafty Individuals set, the flourish is from the Tecnnique Tuesday Whirly Words set that had been on my wish list for ages and I finally got at Ally Pally in April. The sentiment is from the B Line dress set. I cut out and edged the dress with Shabby Shutters DI and mounted the whole thing onto dark green card, that I folded and cut out into a dress shaped card and just added a little wooden button.

I really enjoyed christening this delightful set of stamps.
