I've seen these cards are few times and decided it would be fun to try one for myself. I didn't have a template, nor had a I book marked any sites for one so I opted to do a search. The first two sites that came up on google had the template I was looking for, the third site, well, let's just say I didn't adventure to that one. ;0) To save you some embarrassment, go to the Stamp Owl site for the template I used.
For this card, you will need:
- Stamp Sets: Flight of the Butterfly
- Card Stock: Blush Blossom and Very Vanilla.
- Ink: Blush Blossom and Perfect Plum Classic Stampin' Pads
- Designer Series Paper: Merry Moments
- Tools and Accessories: Pinking Hearts Edge Border
I cut my card stock to just over 4 by 7 inches. I folded in half to get 4 x 3.5 inches and then traced my template onto the cardstock and cut it out. I sponged some Blush Blossom along the edges, front and back to get some dimension. Also using my template, I cut my bra and panties from the Merry Moments Designer Series Paper. Before I attached the bra pieces, I punched the edge of a two small strips of Very Vanilla card stock. I rubbed my card stock along the edge of my table to break the fibers to allow me to put the lace along the edges of my DSP.
I was feeling adventurous for the underwear side. One of my favorite Friend's episodes is the one where Rachel and Phoebe get tattoos. Rachel ends up with a heart on her hip but Phoebe chickens out and ends up with a blue dot but says it is the "earth as seen from space." That would be me, chicken out with the one blue dot. Then, when Ross finds out Rachel got a tattoo, she exclaims, "I got this tiny little heart and Phoebe got the whole world." I love that line. So, when I was making this card, I was inspired to add the hint of a tattoo.
God Bless and Happy Stampin!

OMG! How fun is this card? It looks like a swim suit to me - maybe on a beach in Florida - and on a 20 something. A+ on this one Charity. Diana
