My stepson emailed this gorgeous photo of our youngest granddaughter (in black & white) and I just had to play with it.

I started by coloring the dress and starfish using my
Pastel Chalks. I added pink to the dress and beige to the starfish. The cardstocks are from the
Brights DCWV Cardstock stack which I stamped using my
Fancy Curls set and
Claret PH ink. All the text is from the
This Girl set. The punched border at the top is the new Treading Water Fiskars punch (which gets quite a workout from me!) layered over a strip of white cardstock. The flowers and buttons are out of the
Ava Embellishment Jar. I also used
white scrappers floss (which I curled) and a hot pink brad.The larger flowers are felt. I scattered some of the florals and buttons around the bottom of the page. Now, isn't she just beautiful!!!
We gave our other granddaughter a cool ballerina Tshirt for her 8th birthday and got a photo and the cutest thank you letter which I hope to scrap soon.
And remember that
Friday night at
midnight is the
deadline for posting a comment on my 5000th hit post for the drawing!! Also, when you post it may take a while to show up as I do moderate the comments.

Very lovely page. It's so perfect!
Oh my word, Carol. This is gorgeous. I love how you lightly tinted her dress and the starfish with pastels of all things. I will definitely have to play with this technique.
Lovely page and what a terrific photo
