Transformed Dress Form

Hi everyone! I wanted to show you a  dress form that I purchased from Hobby Lobby that I altered. I made this a few months ago, but am just getting around to posting it. I think it went through a total transformation. I am also submitting this the Sunday Stamper Challenge for "gold"...lots of gold on this one, and Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge for "anything but a card".

This is the original.

I sprayed multiple layers of mists. After drying I stamped more images all over the form. Lace was added for the trim, ribbon and a buckle to create the belt, along with the jewelry.

To create the wings, I free hand cut a pair from corrugated paper, because I didn't have the right size die. I embossed them with a texture fade, and then gave them several coats of glitter glam. Gathered Twigs Distress Ink finished them off around the edges. They were attached with brads.
