Made this for the "You Make My Heart Sing" VSN of Feb. 2011. The challenge was to use a red dress as the focal point.
I punched out 1" circles from DP to create scallops in the background, used MS Ribbon Loop punch for the edge on the black CS, then stamped the image on the rectangular CS, and stamped again to paper piece. I colored in the shoes with watercolor pencils, and added a little red stickle to the flower on the hat for added sparkle.

Oh, wow! I love the paper you used on this, and the paper-piecing is just fabulous, especially the way you centered the bloom on the skirt. Thanks so much for playing in the challenge!
