I was inspired to do this cute dress with the doily apron by a card done by demonstrator Sarah Willis. You can see her card on her blog here. I really like the combination of gingham and polka dots. It gives an old fashioned look. This would be a great card to use when you are giving something homemade from the kitchen. You could include the recipe. I added a strip of the polka dot and gingham DSP inside the card with another punched heart.

I spent last weekend at another craft get-away with girlfriends in Georgia. We went to the same place/cabin where we went 6 months ago. That was the time my garage door was accidently left open for two days. There were five of us this time and everyone works on whatever they want. I had to spend some of my time working on taxes. Ick! I also worked on some cards and the spring wreath from the occasions catalog. I'll post a picture of that later. And there were plenty of breaks for playing mahjongg. It was a good thing we didn't have any plans to go anywhere because the campgrounds are right in the middle of a pine Forrest and the pine pollen was thick. Everything had a dusting of yellow. Even though we were not outside much allergies have kicked in full force.
Thanks for stopping by,
