Here's a card for today's Color Challenge (barely banana, groovy guava, and chocolate chip), MFT's Sketch Challenge #38, and the CCEE weekly challenge (thumping technique).
I've been eyeing this Can Ya Dig It set from MFT for a while now...finally broke down and bought it!
Her hat, dress, gloves, and shoes are all paper pieced. The hat and gloves are from Afternoon Tea DP, the dress is SU's Linen BG on Groovy Guava, the shoes were watercolored with Basic Brown Classic ink on white CS.
The yellow oval panel was cut out with the Coluzzle. The Pretty Petals were stamped in Groovy Guava Ink and then *thumped* with a Chocolate Chip SU Marker. The Chocolate Chip panel behind the main image is up on dimensionals. The inside of the card includes a 1/2" strip of the Afternoon Tea DP and paper piercing along the bottom edge.
Thanks for the fun challenges!

I love the oval and how it spotlights the girl. I also am inspired by your decorating the inside of the card. I never do, then I'm running around at the last minute decorating the inside of my card when I need one! I'll have to take that last step and finish it off! TFS!
