Vintage Dress Stand

Hello everyone. Hope you like my card for today. I am so into the shabby vintage style at the moment and just had to use my new stamps from My Minds Eye. I must stop buying and start using what I have, but there is just so many pretty papers and stamps I want and everyone in blogland are doing such nice designs that I just have to get more and more. HELP....... 
  • Papers from My Minds Eye - Lost and Found - Portebello Road
  • cream card which I embossed
  • distress ink - antique linen
  • lace and pearls from stash
  • printed digi frame
  • Stamp - My Minds Eye - Lost and Found - blush - princess stamp set which was stamped using versafine ink pad - vintage sepia.
  • X-cut - butterfly die
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
The Shabby Tea Room - Week #80  Vintage White
Pink Ink Sketch Challenges - Sketch #6 Kylie's sketch
