    Isn't she a cutie? I think so. I love the paper in your background and the sparkled areas of her outfit really make for a nice "dress up" outfit. The way you have made your background (just the shape and size of it) makes me think that she just busted through a paper wall and is now walking down a model's runway. Wow you are really bringing out the imagination in me. Thanks for that. Enjoy your weekend.

    Beautiful card and love the color choices. I also love the shadow around her. I have tried this but never comes out the way yours did. I love it. I saw your card on MIM. She really brings a great smile to my face.
