You're So Tweet!

Hi everyone!  Happy Wednesday!
It's week 30 of our WSC Getting Sketchy and we have another fabulous sketch for you this week...take a gander at MFTWSC30!

For my card, I decided to ink up the SUPER cute Pure Innocence You're So Tweet from My Favorite Things.  I colored her with Copic Markers and paper pieced her dress with some of the same papers I've used on the rest of the card, It's The Little Things from Fancy Pants Designs.  I then cut her out and popped her up onto a circle element that I embossed with the Seeing Spots Embossing Folder.

I created the three rows of scallops with the Simply Scallops Medium Die-Namics and the flower was created with the Pretty Posies Die-namics and I added a wood button to the center threaded with a bit of Charcoal Baker's Twine.  TONS of stitching (which I am SO not crazy about...hate when that happens) and some DELISH new ribbon from my friend Corinna's store, The Ribbon Carousel, complete the front.


For the inside, I added some more of the same patterned paper, more stitching (blech) and the sentiment, "You're So Tweet" is stamped on and layered with both the Sweet Stack Label Die-Namics and the larger circle is from the First Place Award Ribbon Die-Namics.


Here are the Die-Namics I've used on my card today:
