Dress for Success


I'm back with another sneak peek of a new release stamp (releasing this Saturday night) from High Hopes.  I think this little girl is so cute and I can definitely see my daughter doing the same thing! *wink*  I drew the color inspiration from the patterned paper (Sultry by Basic Grey).


I added ivory Flower Soft to the boa.  I love how it turned out!  It looks all nice and fluffy like a really boa!  I also added rhinestones to the centers of the buttons and dimensional glaze to the pearl necklace.

For more sneak peeks of the new releases, be sure to visit these design team ladies: Crissy, Ila, Jeanne, Kimmie, NikkiKaren, Tab, Michelle, and our special guest, Nikki's talented daughter, Zoe.
