Everything worked out in the end and I love my result. I used Sew Lovely from Lawn Fawn and paper pieced the dress form image with Material Girl from Cosmo Cricket. Then I went a little crazy with the bolly-knocker fringe, two layers adhered with scor-tape (LOVE that stuff). I added a Pure Poppy Vintage Button from PTI to my sentiment because it looked a little lonely.
stamps: sew lovely lawnfawn, vintage picnic sentiments PTI
card stock: PTI kraft
patterned paper: material girl mini deck by cosmo cricket
accessories: red ball fringe offray, pure poppy button PTI
tools: petite oval nestabilities, scor-tape
don't forget:

Love the pom-poms! Makes this a very happy card :)
I love your idea to embellish the sentiment with a button! I can't count the number of times my sentiments have looked lonely or out of place - I'll definitely have to remember this trick the next time it happens. It's the little things!
