Embellish Color Challenge using Paper Piecing!

Oh, I've forgotten how I love to paper piece!  Here are the colors of this challenge:


I LOVE this challenge because I used one of my favorite PI images by MFT!  This image is great
for paper piecing.  I still had some Origins DP from Basic Grey and knew it would be
perfect for this challenge!  I paper pieced her shirt, pants, and the tiny flower on her shirt!


This little cuties soo reminds me of my daughter!  Pigtails and all!
I will be giving this to her for her birthday.....yikes, just 1 month away!


I LOVE the Bracket Edge die from MFT.....it makes such pretty edges to your cards as
well as layers. 


Did you notice my nice "box" around my Pure Innocence girl? 
It's the new stamp set from PTI called Framed.  This is going to be a favorite I can tell right now!
With all of my new goodies I got in the mail from the last release, THIS was the image I used!


I would love to hear what you think of this! 
You will be seeing more of these cute PI kiddos in the future!
