Dressing it up

Found this really sweet dress pattern somewhere on the 'net and thought it would fit perfectly with a butterfly background paper from the Jane Shasky CDrom.

The card itself is a regular easel fold, lilac cardstock lined with butterfly paper and a bit of green.

Took some trial-and-error to get the folds on the dress right but in the end it worked. And a nice bow at the waist hides any imperfections :-)

The extra butterflies I decoupaged to give a bit of height, Add a ribbon, some liquid perl and some embossed greetings - card finished.

 This is the pattern (not sure if the size is good to use but with a paint program (or a plain copier) it can be resized fairly easily). Dotted lines are scored and folded as seen above.

The bottom text of the card reads (translated)
"A friend is someone who knows everything about you and still likes you"
