Friendship Tilda

I have combined this week's sketch from the Papertake Weekly Challenge and A Spoonfull of Sugar's challenge, to use paper piecing. I am still trying to thin my stash (so I can get more LOL!) and have found this pack of Papermania papers. I haven't used a single one ... not sure why I bought them as they are pink based!
I used Dala Tilda and paper pieced her dungarees. The rest I coloured in distress inks, including the Magnolia steps. I cut both Tilda and the steps out and matted them onto , more papers from the pack. I cut the corners out and found 3 Prima flowers that matched. I added the mesh ribbon and sentiment from a Making Memories Defined set.
