Wacky Wishes

Wacky Wishes has been my FAVORITE hostess stamp set this year.  I've used it on so many cards this catalog year!
For this card, I used one of the greetings stamped twice...once in Raspberry Ripple and then stamped again in Whisper White.  This is such a fun technique to try.  It gives the stamp some dimension!  Order your supplies here.
Cardstock:  Pool Party, Raspberry Ripple
Ink:  Raspberry Ripple, Whisper White
Stamps:  Wacky Wishes
Accessories:  Lace Tape, Corner Rounder

The impressions folder made this PERFECT for a wedding dress :)

The Impressions folders can also make a cute belt.

I made the collar on this dress with a circle punch and a scallop circle punch.

The bottom of this dress is a doily simply wrapped around the dress.

Super simple ideas and easy! :)  Order your supplies here.
