Loved the cards that Susie Australia made with this image. I remember her doing one where the ballerina had a dimensional snowflake skirt.
I stamped the girl and colored her with Copics. Cut her out and glued her to the bag. Using a thin grocery bag, I applied several colors of acrylic paint randomly, sprayed with a gold mist and when dry die cut various leaf shapes. Used a TH stamp to add some texture to the bg and then added "smears" of gold paint(looks yellow in the photo). The skirt was made by gluing down layers of the die cut leaves. Thanks, Susie, for the inspiration. Happy Australia Day!
This will be for a fashionista friend's birthday.

A gift bag worthy of framing, Sallie! Beautiful skirt for lovely Grace and the splashes of gold and texture are a dramatic bg. Thanks for bringing your lovely CASE to my challenge.
