Purple Rosie

I absolutely adore Sugar Nellie's Rosie,  she is so cute, sitting there with her rose.  I coloured her using my pens, and then glamour dusted hre wings and halo, and stickled under her dress.  Having distressed all the dp and the image, I stitched the papers using my sewing machine (it is now working again!!).  I added some gorgeous purple webbing, it is so strokeable!!, and some flowers made from a die set and a swirl.  I stamped the sentiment onto cardstock and added pearls to it and the centres of the flowers.

Supplies
Colouring medium: Copics
Papers: digi
Embellishments: Memory box dies (cherry blossom, ), flat backed pearls, webbing
glamour dust, stickles
Tools: cuttlebug, sewing machine, TH Paper distresser
