It is time for the next color challenge at CR84FN. I thought this dress form inside this adorable WM frame was so sweet. I have been seeing dress forms all over blog land again and decided it was time to get mine back out. I am horrible about buying stamps and only using them once. You are going to see some more of my collection soon. I sometimes feel like as soon as the next new stamps sets come out that I can't use my older ones because they just aren't cool anymore. That isn't so. I have noticed at PTI that they are bringing out some older sets and having the DT use them with new sets. I like that a lot. We spend a lot of $$ on our supplies for them to just sit there and collect dust. Don't you agree?
I used a couple different stamps lines here. I have the Waltzing Mouse Holiday Labels, the dress form is Unity that I bought at Archivers last year...and the sentiment is from PTI. I dressed up the dress form a little. Some Le Creme Baby Pearls from Want 2 Scrap and satin ribbon for the sash.
Look at this beautiful inspiration photo. Doesn't it just make you want to run and create? I love the soft colors and bright light in the picture.

Heather, your work is absolutely gorgeous! I am so happy to find your blog - I will surely be stopping by regularly for inspiration. I'm loving the CR84FN challenge - lovely colors and the DT is fantastic. ;)
Sooo pretty heather!!!
Just stunning, Heather! Love how you framed the lovely dress form here! I am with you on using stamps more than once.. I am trying to do the same thing! I hope you are well stocked in case you do get snowed in..
Heather, this is just so STUNNING! LOVE the added detail of that sash! Your ribbon and bow and lace are all so FAB! LOVE the vertical label behind the dress form. It mimics the outline of the dress form! VERY CLEVER!
So pretty Heather! Love the shimmery button and gorgeous bow! The pearl necklace and green sash are awesome details!
Gorgeous blend of the colors and fabulous mix of patterns! Another stunning creation, Heather! Beautifully done!
Heather it's gorgeous....a real eye catcher. So true what you say about not using older stamps enough...I think many of us are guilty of that and it's just crazy...especially in these hard economic times.
Sweet work. Love the ribbon n the image too.
So PRETTY!! Love the colors you used and that fabulous bow!!
Wow, Heather, you are so darn talented! I love this card so much! Really elegant and creative! Perfect use of these interesting colors! What great inspiration for us all!
Oh so pretty!! I love dressforms too... going to have to find me a stamp set and get busy. Yes, I agree with you that stashes are meant to be used! :) Thank you for the inspiration! :)
p/s... make sure you let me know how you like the blog :)

Heather - that's such a pretty bodyform and the ribbon sash is fab! I agree with you about using old stamps - I've so many. Your card is great - love all the details. Beautiful!

Gorgeous as always! I love the dress form. I have another card you made with the same dress form in my faves. I'm glad to see it again, and it looks great with the WMS label.
Lovely dress form with the pieced paper and all the beautiful accents! Beautiful card! Love the way you mixed the colors with all the accents.
This is beautiful, and I especially love the row of polka dots!
Heather this is STUNNING!!! Absolutely divine! Love the background and the focal point!!! Just gorgeous!!! And the seam binding - YUM!!!
Hi Heather! Your bows are so pretty. I think you need to give me a tutorial on that. I can do many things but tie a pretty bow is not one of them!
I hope your new year is starting out well.
Hi there Heather.. Your card looks wonderful, as usual.. I love how you put the form over the frame looks wonderful.. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend.. Hugs, Linda
Just lovely Heather - I love how you used the WM stamp as your frame for the dressform - clever girl you are! Hope all is well! xx :)
Beautiful blog! Definitely added to my Reader!
I love your new blog look and what a lovely card, a great interpretation of that beautiful inspiration photo.
This card is lovely Heather! I totally agree about buying a million stamps and then not using them! Horrible and I do that ALL of the time! I adoooore your blog design! It's gorgeous!
Stunning use of this weeks colors, love how you dressed up the dress form - so pretty!
This is so sweet and feminine Heather! Love the bow on the dress form and your change of stitch type in the corner. :-)

Beautiful card Heather..Love these colors. How creative on using a bow and pearls to embellish the dress :)
Adorable, this is so perfectly pretty, great challenge!
Heather, I just love this - it's beautiful!! I totally get what you're saying - I think it's so easy to get caught up during release time, and forget that you already have so many stamps that would do the same trick as what you're itching to buy! ..and I love your new blog look - the damask is soooo pretty :)
Another gorgeous creation Heather! So feminine and perfect! Love the sweet details you've added!!! Hugs ~S~
I fell off my chair again.....I love love love your old stamps sets and your card is breathtaking. I'm smitten.
