FRIDAY- Getting cricky challenge

Hi Everyone,
I thought I would try something a little different for K. Andrews  getting cricky challenge Theme: VINTAGE.
The theme being what it is "vintage " I decided not to use my cricut and only used scissors and a paper trimmer, everything is cut out by hand and layered. I downloaded the images from the internet and they are printed on Bazzill basic card stock - Great Paper by the way" This is a 5x7 card PTI card stock--my last piece  :-( I need to place another order. I placed black lace under the shoes and tied a 1/8" satin ribbon around the waist of the dress form. I love the way this card came out, very romantic and vintage. I need to venture out a bit more I have gotten a bit dependent on the cricut machine & designs. I love them, but it is nice to experiment.
