This is my card for the sketch challenge today....thanks again Roxie. I had the idea in my head, but the translation of it took a bit longer....KWIM? I stamped the girl image in versamark and embossed it with clear powder onto WW. I then stippled around it with peach parfait, then Daffodil Delight (this was after I tried sponge daubers and sponges). I used Sunny Garden DSP for one of the layers, but didn't like the muted tones of the other pieces....so I dry embossed a bottom layer in pear Pizazz, and used Mary Fish's idea for making rickrack with my scallop punch(http://www.stampinpretty.com/creating-rick-rack.html). I ran them through the dot folder too, to keep the theme going. I added a sentiment, some flowers and pearls and was finally satisfied with my card....whew!
I love this sketch....thanks Roxie for bringing it to us, and I thank you for looking at my card!

I love your citrus-y colors for this. So springy!! The white silhouette is so pretty, and your rick-rack die cuts are adorable.
