They captivate me, the photos at least. I don't know if I will still be as captivated once it's in my house. More likely, knowing me, I will feel as if its watching me (especially those fabric/full form ones), then I'd end up freakin' out and feeling spooked. Hahaha!
However, i think this one is perfect! Click the link and you'll know why. Perfection, isn't it? But yeah, No, I'll not be getting it anytime soon. What would I do with it? And there will soon be some elevator construction work going on outside our door, the amount of dust (which will taint my dress form) will be unbearable, the noise will kill me, yeah, long story, I'll blog about it once they started and I can actually have some photos taken of the mess. LOL. *sigh* a girl can certainly dream. . . (of the dress form, not of the dust). :D
One layout... another friend :)
This is Louisa May. We used to have playdates for the girls (just so we could sit there all day, chit-chatting and giggling). We also used to have breakfast together after sending our girls to their respective schools. They are now in San Diego.. so far away from me. So far away from our playdates and breakfast meets and I'm missing them. Big Time.
The layout is simple - because we are simple. (the photo seems crooked? sorry...!!) I can tell her what is on my mind, without her over-analyzing things over and over again! That's the best part! *grins* Miss you Lou..!! *hugs*
Teal Frame Wallpaper overlay, on Scenic Route background paper. Pink Wings overlay with some equally pink rhinestones.
Added a little flourish from Mini Vintage antique white rub onsMetallic Silver Ink on kraft Little Circles paper. Those lacey looking ruffles peeking from underneath the cardstock, urmm.. is a strip of die-cut ribbon (i suppose? I don't know, really). I bought some from the shop that sells pretty things associated with weddings, near my parents'. I seldom go there, because everytime I go, I would definitely be buying things I don't need. But seeing that one of my sister is getting married next year (it's never too early to start shopping), I might have to *read - must* plan a visit soon, you know, I have obligations as THE big sister, to help with the organizing and decorating. *cough*cough*cough* LOL.
What else is happening? Ah! 4 weeks off school for the girls. 4 weeks of craziness in the house. LOL. Send me some good luck vibes, will you? *grins* We're goin' cycling soon. . .I guess I'll see you soon with my sore bum and aching legs.

Oh, that's so sad that she's not close anymore, sounds like you had a beautiful friendship.

I'm crazy about dress forms, too - I have a collection of little ones and stamps - need one of those vintage ones!!
You are simply the queen of clean and simple!! Love it, Sasha! It's hard to have friends so far away. :)
It's sad to be so far from such a great friend but the great thing is that you are still friends. Now that layout... it is so beautiful, I love the simplicity and beauty of it. Goodluck with the cycling, I cringe every time I hear the girls say "Mommy, Daddy lets go riding" because my behind is the one that suffers the most :) Have a wonderful weekend.
Wonderful layout as ever :)
Whereabouts is the shop that you got the ribbon from? I've got family in Singapore so end up there pretty much every summer.

That dress form is gorgeous. I've seen smaller versions in the stores. Wanted to get one but don't have anywhere to put it.
love it!
That dress form is so pretty! I have a dress form in my craft room, but it's basically just for decor. I mean, God forbid I use my sewing machine for something other than paper projects! :-) I say get it... & be happy!
