All the cardstock is either Recollections or from Amy Tangerine's Rise and Shine 6x6 paper pad. Just as a side note this paper collection is one that I can't cut down into my usual sizes. I have kept every single scrap...I can't help myself.
Ok back on on track. I followed the current sketch over on the Mojo Monday Challenge blog for this card.
The ballerina silhouette I found from a free clip art site..I have no idea which one. My Cricut cut out the ballerina in no time. I did add clear wink of stella to the ballerina for some shine. Then I added some Distress Ink in Picked Raspberry around the sides using my ink blending tool. Finally, I used my die cuts from Wish to cut out the frame for the sentiment. Just that little bit of stitching really does make that pop.
The sentiment is another I inherited from my sister. It says, "I love being a girl!". I also cut out a butterfly using a die in the same blue strip but at a diagonal. To the butterfly I added some clear wink of stella as well. To make it shine I also added a layer of glossy accents.
Here is the sketch from Mojo:
