Scrap Challenge card

I am  loving all the vintage things that are so popular these days. Over at Paper Craft Planet in the group Anything Goes  they have a challenge to use up scraps. No bigger than 3"x3" and no smaller than 1/4"x1/4".
All products are Close To My Heart products. I heat embossed the dress form and scissors in black embossing powder. Gathered a scrap of patterned paper to form the skirt and I also used shaped scissors to cut the bottom edge of the skirt. Most of the sewing items were from the  Tailor Made stamp set. The little butterfly on the hat was cut from pattern paper that came with the same paper pack as the skirt paper. The hat was a mushroom stamp that I cut down a little to be more the size I needed. Thinking outside the box on that one :) I really wanted a hat and didn't have one. Some bling  formed buckle of the belt, the necklace and also was used on the butterfly.
 Here are some close-ups.

Hope you enjoy.
