Do you remember ra ra skirts?!

Hi everyone!  It's Mary J here and I must admit to being very excited today!  This is my very first Dressy Girl DT post for All Dressed Up and I loved playing with this sweetie pie...



Do you remember ra ra skirts?!  If so, you're probably an 80's girl like me.  But I hear they are coming back in fashion so perhaps I'll have to go out and invest in a new one.  Anyway, enough reminiscing and back to my card!  This beautiful girl is one of the Autumn Girls from the All Dressed Up Etsy shop.

Before I go, just wanted to mention that there is still time to join in with the current All Dressed Up challenge.  Check out all the deets here - I hope you get a chance to join in with us and be in for a chance to win a £5 store voucher!  I'd love to see how you use these gorgeous digis and you can even use the freebie digi which you can get here.

Okay, I really am going now - see you tomorrow with my CC Designs DT post - ta ra!

Hi Mary... LOVING how you've coloured this little lady... and the paper you've used too... come on... tell... what is it?? Why do papers that other people use always look so much better than my stash!! LOL

And btw... I remember dirndl skirts... nevermind ra-ra ones... (but it was obviously my sister who used to wear them!! She was a teddy girl of the 50's!)

Big hugs

Yes I remember RaRa skirts! I made one in needlework class, unfortunately I never got to wear it as someone kindly pinched it whilst it was on display in the classroom!

Fantastic work as always
