PAPER PIECING : IMAGE AND BACKGROUND

 The Twisted Thursday challenge at The Outlawz is paper piecing and this is my card to enter into the challenge.  The image, called "Vanity" is from the A Day for Daisies store here
To create this card I paper pieced as follows:

I printed the image three times, and one I left blank so that I could colour the hair and skin.
One image I printed onto the turquoise patterned paper and fussy cut. the dress.
The last image was printed onto the pink paper that I fussy cut for the background.

The colouring  of the skin and hair was done with alcohol markers and a white gel pen.

I matted the image onto teal cs.
The little flower sequins are sewn on.

I also used a white cs base and pink ribbon.
