My first card highlights the lovely dress-form from The Sewing Room A5 sheet and was inspired by a wedding dress. I heat embossed the dress-form in black onto heavy weight kraft card. Then I ruffled up some sheer white ribbon and cream lace to "build" the under-skirt of a wedding dress in progress. I can only imagine the hustle and bustle in a real sewing room! For a touch of bridal glamour, I added tiny bling to form a necklace. The greeting is from Loving Sentiments A5 sheet.
More lace on my second card, only this time I'm using stamps from the Floral Mannequins A5 sheet. The background was created by stamping the lace fragment directly onto a piece of patterned paper followed by a little colouring with Polychromos. The ruffled lace is also from the Floral Mannequins A5 sheet, but this time I heat embossed it in white onto vellum and fussy cut it. I coloured the mannequin with alcohol markers, fussy cut and mounted it with some foam tape. The greeting is from the Birthday Words A5 sheet.

Stunners both but I do have a predisposition to the first with its lovely neutral colours & the detail of the ruffled wedding skirt & the little necklace. The second works beautifully with your use of the soft muted background in the same colours as the vibrantly coloured body form. The lace is a super foil with the whiteness matched by your signature stitching.
