I've started by embroidering the pattern then die cut the oval and added the beads, glued a shiny oval frame, fussy cut the fairy and made her sitting in the oval, inked slightly the edges, and layered on sand and orange linen.
I've got S= stickers, star, P = pink socks, papers, R= rice beads, I = ink (edges), N = needlework G = green (beads)
I've focused on the challenge, less on her favorites, I hope she'll like it.

Love your embroidered designs, Anita, and the variegated thread adds a cool burnished look to the piece. You even managed to match that feeling in the oval framing, too.

Yes, what everyone said -- your embroidery is impeccable, the colors are fabulous and so well matched in every aspect, the oval framing is outstanding; but, I stand in awe of your fussy cutting skills. That chick would have lost half her hair and that sweet bell if I was wielding the scissors. Is there a French phrase that means more than Tres' Magnifique because this is.
