One of my favorite new sets from the recent catalog! This little girl reminds me of my little girl Natalie...
I watercolored the main image. I also added some faux stitching around the edges of the dsp. These are my two favorite techniques! All products are by Stampin' Up!

Very nice card. And if it reminds you of your daughter, makes this set extra special for you. I love the happy-ness of your card. Cheery focal point, cheery colors and wonderful techniques to boot.
Thanks for sharing.

Oh, so cute. This card is just stunning--all the great details. I love the faux stitching (also a fave of mine) and your watercoloring and ribbon treatment are really well done.
My HF spent some time swinging today, despite still-cold temps here, and had a great time! It really is a simple pleasure we can all relate to.
