Supplies:
note cards: 4bar folded cards in Luxe Fino Cream (pack of 20=$5.25)
scrap piece of cream cardstock (4×5 inches)
sewing machine Xacto knife glue double sided tape or adhesive tulle patterned or colored paper (for dress tops)
thread adhesive pearls
1: Cut out dress bodice from patterned or colored paper and adhere it to the front of the card.
2: Using the Xacto knife cut out the skirt part of the dress, leaving the top waist intact. Pop the skirt away from the card.
3: Cut tulle to about 6×8 inches. Using scotch tape, tape the tulle to the inside of the card above the waist of the dress.
4: Using a zig-zag stitch, sew the tulle to the card where the bodice meets the skirt. This will adhere your tulle and create a little belt for your dress.
5: Remove the tape, pull the tulle through the skirt and trim it, using the shape of the skirt as your guide.
6: Embellish with an adhesive rhinestone.
7: Adhere a piece of cream cardstock to the inside of the card to hide the back of the dress and give yourself more writing room.
