I went with Team DOGS
D - Deckle-edged Die, Distress Oxide Inks
O - Oval, Optimistic Sentiment, Olive Cardstock
G - Girl, Gold paint
S - Sizzix EF, Sparkle, Stickles
I randomly inked the inside of the Sizzix Ringers folder with DOX inks, Spritzed with water and ran thru the Big Shot to emboss. I die cut this with a deckle-edged rectangle and edged with lime-green stickles for lots of sparkle.
Stamped the Unity girl, Colored with prismacolor pencils and fussy cut then added gold paint to all her jewelry. Die cut the sentiment with a pierced oval. Layered on all my elemnts - the girls feet were adhered directly to the frame and the rest of the body raised up with mounting foam. Finished with some grounding lines drawn in with a black sharpie. I will get this in the mail tomorrow morning since the stickles is still drying . . . .

Fabulous background, Linda! Thanks for describing how you did this! Love the lime green edging. Your pencil coloring on her jeans and sweater is so realistic looking!

Great, wild and organic BG, Linda, and the perfect sentiment. It makes me think of the cells in our body working so hard to attain their maximum, healthy potential. Wonderful.

Your embossed coloured background is super, Linda. I have been meaning to try the embossing folder stamping with DOX inks - thanks for returning that thought to my mind. I like your image - it reminds me of my SIL. The sparkly Stickles edges are fantastic.
