A little paper piecing anyone???

I have had these sets for a few months and have yet to play with them.  The images are from the sets How Swell and Running Stitches, both from TAC.  I started making the card and thought that the shirt would look wonderful paper pieced to match the designer paper that I used (from provocraft).  After I adhered it, a thought came to me (rare, I know).  Why not add some stickles to the shirt?!?!  Everything looks better with stickles, right?  So, I added some diamond stickles to that baby and voila!  The coloring was done with Prismacolor pencils and OMS.  I used the 3 flower punch ,from Stampin’ Up’s three for you punch box, to make a border down the right side of the flower DP and then adhered it to my CS base.  Then I used my new Crop-a-dile to put eyelet centers in the flowers.  Pretty stinkin’ cute if I must say.  And of course no card is complete without ribbon!  I used TAC’s Toodle Loo blue ribbon tied between the two center eyelets.  Next, I put 2 running stitches stamps down the striped panel, adhered the main image and I was done.  Perfect “You’re Preggo” card!  TFL!
