Daisy chain girl

The weather here is completely dreary - so far today we've had hail, snow, rain, sun, snow ... I think you get the picture. So in retaliation I've focused on making a very Spring-y card.
I used one of my favourite Stamping Bella stamps for this card. The colouring is done with Copics and then I've added some Glossy Accents to the balloons. And it's hard to see, but there are tiny pearls at each gather of her dress. This little lady is definitely ready for a fancy party! The papers are all Basic Grey and the sentiment is computer generated. I added a felt daisy chain strip across the front and then added more little pearls to the centre of each daisy. I've gotta say, those tiny pearls are a real pain to work with (I think I lost more than I ended up using).  For the card design, I used a sketch from Paperworks Company:
