Saw this cutie patootie image from Sassy Cheryl and just knew I had to use her for my sister's birthday card.
Printed the image/sentiment once on X-Press Blending card and then a 2nd time on SU DSP for just her little shirt. (Sentiment is computer generated using free FISHFingers font.)
Colored with Copics, paper pieced her top and assembled the card. Finished off with some marshmallow sequins.
Inside, I stamped the following sentiment from Art Impressions:
You're not old...you're chronologically gifted!
I love how this turned out. Hope you do, too! TFL!
P.S.
I am probably stretching it a bit here, but am entering this in this week's Shopping Our Stash Challenge #166 -- ABC's.
A = Adhesive, Awestruck Child Image

This is sooooooo cute! I love your color choice, and the paper pieced shirt, and the copic coloring, and well, I guess I just like the whole shooting match, as they say. Well done!
