Birthday card featuring an origami dress and some sewing die cuts

 

My youngest daughter is having a birthday!!  She runs a business in called Winnipeg Sews and so I made her a card with that theme.  I folded the origami dress from a pattern I found on line.  I used a 6.5" square and it worked well on a large card.  The die cut arrived in an exchange card this week!!!  They were lavender so I just used a black permanent marker and changed them to black which worked really good with my dress and the background.  I think pattern tissue would have been better for the background but I did not know exactly where to find it so went with a quicker option.  I adhered the dress and then added the die cuts - scissors (I added a tiny gold brad), the measuring tape, the sewing machine and the spool of thread.  I trimmed a little banner greeting and added it last using 3D foam tape!!!  Really happy with how it worked out!!  Therese
