I simply adore you

Here's my card for July's SFYTT sketch challenge.  This month's sponsor is My Favorite Things, one of my favorite stamp companies.  (hehehe)  I chose to use one of the Pure Innocence images.  I've actually had the card base with the luscious patterned paper put together for several weeks now waiting for a flash of inspiration to finish it.  Since I needed to get my sketch card done, it gave me a head start!   lol

Once I decided to paper-piece the clothes using the same patterned paper, this card came together quickly.  So cute!  (and yes, that teeny little flower was stamped and colored on white)  Both the flower print of her shirt and black distressed print of her pants came from the Urban Prairie paper collection by Basic Grey.  I used my Copic markers to color her face, hair, and shoes.  I did some selective inking with the sentiment so it could fit in the circle, since it's usually one horizontal line.  Then I just cut out my girl, adhered the layers, and added a little embossed texture to the Aqua Mist pennant.  Love it!
