I've gone grey scale for my card, using just six pens, all the Ice Greys and Black, to colour this pretty Papermania Bellisima dress stamp. I added a touch of Star Dust Stickles to the bodice to make it look beaded or maybe sequined. I was tempted to go for shades of pink on this gorgeous dress, but I do quite like how elegant it turned out in grey.
The patterned paper is Papermania Capsule Collection in Midnight Blush, to which I've added some grey pearl card for matting and a Craftwork Cards birthday sentiment. The flowers were made with an Xcut punch, I added a hint of grey with a pale Promarker, then made some black foliage with a Woodware punch. I further embellished with some black organza ribbon, a double bow and some clear gems.
