The Dressmakers.




Dressmaking/ corsets/ accessories   is our 10th Challenge theme  over at Fashionable Stamping challenges.    Please pop over  here  for all the details and see what we have all been making.  We love our stamping and hope you will include some in your work.

I  enjoyed making  this small  collage hanging,  a real change to Christmas cards.
The stamps  used  are by Creative Expressions and Stampers Anonymous.
I stamped the tailors dummy onto stickyback canvas,  to add a bit of texture.
All the colouring is antique linen, vintage photo and walnut stain distress inks..
The trimmings are all from my stash.

Thankyou for stopping by to take a look, I realy appreciate your comments

    Hi Meggymay,
    The colours and the layers make this such a rich and luxurious piece. Stunning! I especially love the hint of red that brings everything to life...so beautiful

    Stunning collage.
    A piece I could easily sit and study for a long time, taking in all the stamped elements and little touches.
    Wonderful.

    Fantastic and so much fitted into the small space. It would look lovely on a sewing room wall for sure
