New Dress, Vintage Style

I'm back with my second post for today. Please scroll down for today's Beatrix Potter card.
After a busy morning I spent the afternoon in my craftroom. I had 3 cards to make for Crafter's Companion and then I had time to make this one. I am totally in love with the vintage style at the moment.
