Today is Everything Inque Day! That means everything EVERYTHING “Inque Boutique… stamps, inks, markers, papers, ribbons, felt, glitter chipboard, inqueboard, brads…the works” is 20% off! So in honor of Everything Inque Day I have made a dress Victorian style. This beautiful lady is part of the “Victorian Dressmaker” set by Inque Boutique.
This was so fun! I stamped my oh-so-Victorian lady three times. The base layer is cut out around the left side only. I then cut out the skirts on the other two images, rounded them slightly and layered them onto the base image. (The top skirt is cut a little shorter than the middle and bottom skirts.) Since all of the shading is drawn right into the image, she was a breeze to color. I just used my markers with a few touches of a white gel pen for highlighting.
I used large dimensionals at the bottom of the dress close to the hem and thinner dimensionals about half way between the waist and the hem. There are no dimensionals at the waist.
The stamped border and sentiment are from Inque Boutique’s “French Fancy” set.
The Purple Turtle Shoppe is carrying the Everything Inque Day sale. And they have decided to extend the sale to be Saturday (today), Sunday AND Monday. How cool is that! To get the 20% discount you will need a coupon code to be entered at checkout. What is that code you ask? The code is: awesome. That’s for sure!

Can you say gorgeous? WOW! Susan this is a frameable work of art! I lvoe the dimension of the dress, the design with the border stamp, the textures and colours! I love it all!
Oh My Gosh….this is awesome. I love the elegant look of the card and I especially love the way you’ve made the bottom of her dress stand out. Beautiful. Joan
This is stunning, Susan! I can’t believe all the layering on her skirt (what a great idea to do that — it totally makes the card!) and all the layering and dimension of the rest of the card. It’s so unique and looks like it took quite a bit of time to put together. Bet you’re going to have a tough time giving that one away! š
Awesome is right! Look at all of the dimension on this card and the detail. Wow!

Your creativity is amazing…I want whatever it is you are taking! Oh, I’ve “tagged” you on my blog…you need to play along, of course, if you don’t, then it’s okay, but just try to come up with 6 unimportant things about yourself…that’s all…and then you have to tag some peeps of your own! Nan
