I'm also entering it into the new Wild Orchid Challenge (say it with flowers - I'm saying it with flower!), Paper Sundaes (lots of Layers) and ABC Challenge (You + Me).
That poor little girl - I initially coloured her face with Antique Linen Distress Ink, it picked up some of the printer ink and she ended up looking very very queasy. I salvaged her as best I could by adding tattered rose, it took away the worst of the green tinge, but I think she looks like her face (and ears!) need a good wash!!! But I do like how the jeans and shoes turned out. Here's a close-up (errrrrr - not sure I really want you to see it!!!):
Recipe:
Papers: Basic Grey "Max + Whiskers"
Stamp: Meljens from Whimsy Stamps
Punch: Fiskars "Threading Water"
Other: Ribbon and flower from stash, distress inks, needle + thread
Thanks for looking!

P.S. I got a package of stuff in the post today, part of which completes my blog candy. Just have to put it all together and photograph over the next few days - watch this space!
