All Dressed Up Quick & Simple Card

In need of a quick and simple layout for a card?  This card was such a breeze to put together once I had selected my color combination: Real Red, Basic Black and Whisper White.  Once I cut the dress out in this red and white polka dot pattern from the Summer Smooches DSP, I knew exactly who to make this card for...my grandmother.  She loves anything red and this dress reminds me of pictures I've seen in the past of her all dressed up for a night of dancing.  So I had to create this card just for her to let her know that I was thinking of her.
I added the Needlepoint Border embossing folder to the edge of the Whisper White layer to give the card a more feminine look and it seemed to fit with the whole dress making/sewing image I was creating.  My grandmother also liked to sew her own dresses so this was the perfect addition to the card for her.  I added the words "Thoughts of You" from the Loving Thoughts stamp set and the words "all dressed up with somewhere to go!" from the All Dressed Up stamp set.  I popped up the dress and dress form with a few dimensionals. Then, I added the words "made just for you" from the Creatively Yours stamp set to finish off my grandmother's card.

I have to admit that this All Dressed Up stamp set and framelits bundle has become my new favorite!  It's so easy to use and you can easily make some quick and simple cards with this bundle.  Give it a try today and share your creations with us.
