Birthday Dress

As I was surfing the blogs today, I saw a peek for Amy R's new stamp set, and was inspired by the dress on Amy's first card. I also wanted to create a card for the Jacksonbelle Embellishments challenge, so I went with #4, which is to create a birthday card (JBENYE4).
I distressed the twine by unwinding it. The sentiment is embossed with clear powder, as I was worried it wouldn't stand out enough. I'm always wary about stamping directly on patterned paper! To add dimension, I popped the bottom of each layer.

ps. The layers aren't crooked, apparently it's just my head when I attempt to take a photo!
