All that Glamour Teapot

Another Tuesday, another card !!  The Teapotters are going to Italy and of need of a couture worthy to attend a fundraiser with George Clooney, at least that's the short of a long story of this challenge.  There was three cousins, the Price is Right, and a cruise ship somewhere in the mix.  So it's a girlie, girl card.  This card will be going to a young lady named Laura in Colorado who was hit by a train and needs some smiles. Here's the teapot for inspiration:

With a house full of boys, girlie cards can be a challenge for me, but I like to do them.  It's the only time a can get girlie in this house.  The first thing I thought about was Tiffany's, lots of bling, diamonds, pearls and all those things that go with glam and a girl.  Here's my card:

The color was Tiffany's inspired. Lots of sparkles going on behind the dress, on the dress and off to the side.  I wanted it to sparkle.  I black embossed the dress then colored it in with watercolors.  Rhinestones were added to the bottom of the dress.  I used Stickles for the top of the dress, as well as on the swirly parts of the dress. 

Sometimes I don't remember to put the inside of my cards on my blog, but they too get dressed up, as well as the envelope sometimes. I put a watermark of another dress on the inside and a sentiment that I thought was appropriate for someone going through a lot right now.

What was used to make my card:
