Kim’s card focuses on the  Paper Couture Dress  die set. This die set fashions up a beautiful dimensional dress for all types of celebration cards. Customize your party dresses with patterned paper or cardstock, and add a delicate die cut bow at the waist. There’s even an adorable hanger to “hang” your dress from.

In today’s video, Kim shares tips and techniques for folding the pleats to create the cinched waist. Kim points out a simple starting place - the main center pleat. Fold down the lines closest to the center pleat to pop it out. Then fold down the long straight score lines on either side of the skirt to create the side pleats. Next, pinch the angled score lines to tuck folds behind those main pleats. Watch the video to see Kim walk you through the simple folds step-by-step.
The dainty details on the Elliptical Oval die create the perfect landing spot for Kim’s darling purple patterned dress. Kim finished off the festive dress with a sweet die cut bow. A Glimmer sentiment and background, plus die cut florals finish off this sweet celebration card. Find the complete  Truly Yours collection  in the Spellbinders shop.

MaryH,

Love the collection “Truly Yours” and these sweet dresses are just adorable. Moreover, the little flowers from this collection are so useful for all kinds of cards (by themselves as used here or as fillers). I love how in the collections, kits, and die sets you seem to have included flowers of all different sizes, shapes and types. Expands the use of all your products for us. Well thought out throughout your product lines! Another thing I both enjoy and appreciate about Spellbinders are you videos – very helpful and inspiring.
