Easy.....there is one project that I keep going back to look at. In case you have the book, it is the one on page 39, called it's all about style, and it features some stamps from my favorite new set. Love the little skirt and blouse!
This is what I did:
I had a lot of fun with the details here. I put the skirt and blouse together and "hung" them on a mini wire hanger. Some grosgrain ribbon and one of Tim's snaps belts the outfit.
Those little scissors started off very differently. They were bright orange plastic. Call the Good Taste Police! I fixed them up with some black and silver alcohol inks. The thimble is a genuine one, but since I don't sew, it was easy to sacrifice it for the sake of art.
The buttons are also all from my stash.
Don't know where the little spools I put on the hanger came from. I know someone sent them to me, probably along with a swap, but I can't remember who. I thought they were perfect for this piece.
I put the words celebrate with style on my hanging, thinking I could use it as a birthday card, or really any sort of occasion where celebrating is OK.

What a great piece, Eileen!! I love the tiny scissors you fixed up and the way you hung the dress :)
Eileen this is such a fun fun piece of ART. Wonderful as always.
Eileen, this would especially be a great piece for a quilter or sewer. I have never used alcohol inks, and am thinking I may have to try them on some silver charms.
