I had so much fun making my paper Feria dress that I just had to use the technique again. I've had The Ribbon Reel's current inspiration photo (see below) in my head ever since I saw it while updating the Monday Challenges on Paper Playful, so I raided my embellishment stash and made this CAS card:
For the origami paper dress, I followed the tutorial at Inklings & Yarns (although I used a 3x3 piece of paper for this).
I used one of my favorite papers, "You & Me" from the Seen & Noted collection by Pebbles Inc., but the flower "trim" is actually a bonus from the paper's copyright section. Don't you love it when company do that?! For the dress, I cut the paper to include that bonus trim, but I did cut-and-paste the sleeves. The dress embellishment is finshed with a satin ribbon sash and a coat-hanger clip.
The Prima flowers were sewed onto the tiny buttons. I wrapped the tiny spool with variegated craft thread, and wrote the "love" sentiment with it & Glossy Accents.
The lower half of the card was embossed with my newest Cuttlebug folder, Charles. The front of the card is made of manila cardstock, but it is on a white cardstock base. The top edges were notched with my favorite Marvy punch.
