I have had this lady stamp for ages - the name on the stamp is Creative Stamping and I inked her up with black Archival, covered with a sheet of baking parchment then Mint Sparkle Angelina Fibres, another sheet of baking parchment and ironed on medium. The ironed fibre looks like silk. I stamped the lady again on white card, embossed with clear powder and coloured the skin, hair and shoes with Promarkers. I cut both out and stuck together. I only cut the clothes and hat out from the fibres. the background is inked with Distress Inks (using brushes) I can't remember what colours and then I stamped, faintly, Joanna Sheen perfume bottles over the background I then added the lady, words, lace and flowers (dabbed with frosted lace Stickles) and it was done!

Fabulous design on your tag Christine. I remember this song so well and now I can't stop singing it. Love how you did the dress with the fibres. Susan xx
What a great song choice (I will be singing it all day now too!) and the dress on your tag is just gorgeous. You have reminded me that I have a huge stash of fibres... somewhere.. Anne x
You always create such beautiful pieces, Chris, and this is no exception. I love the delicate colouring you have achieved with the Promarkers, and I love the green of the dress against the pink. Fab!
