Sweet Girl using Creative Embellishments amazing chipboards

Hi .. OMG this is my youngest Grand Daughter way back when???  She has grown up to be a beautiful young lady and still so adorable too. I am using Blue Fern Studio Home Spun Collection and adding Creative Embellishment chipboards that I copic coloured to accent it.

Supply List:

Creative Embellishment Products

Chipboards: Girl Word Set, Berries

Paper: Blue Fern Studio Home Spun Collection

Flowers: Blue Fern Studio Garden Blooms

Ink: Tim Holtz distressed vintage and distress Oxide candied apple, copics, metal key, ribbon, firefly ephemera collage kit, gold border trim

I  am following one of my own sketches for this one... so using the sketch I started by cutting and placing the main pieces with inked edges.

I actually have my extra sewing machine with me this trip so  decided to stitch around the shapes.

Should have inked first but as an after thought I was careful around the pieces and did it anyway.

Laying all the pieces in place again and pulling some more accents....  I start gluing some background pieces moving forward to front.

I decided it needed some balance so tied a ribbon bow and pulled some gold accents.

The chipboard berry accents are a perfect touch to the floral cluster.  

Some close up views.

I chose the "Sweet Girl" chipboards and copic coloured them to pop off the busy prints.
