Without Further Ado...

Meet Miss Sock Monkey!

She was stamped in Black StazOn ink and paper pieced with Very Vanilla, Kraft, and Riding Hood Red cardstock, and her tutu was dyed with a pink Copic marker and hand gathered and sewn on with clear machine quilting thread. The flower she is holding was colored with blender pens and Kiwi Kiss, Pirouette Pink, Riding Hood Red, and YoYo Yellow inks. She sits on a Tiny Bubbles cuttlebugged Pink Pirouette and Riding Hood Red oval Nestability cutout set, layered over a polkadot piece of Bella Rose DSP and Close to Cocoa cardstock stitched with pink machine embroidery thread. The card base is Very Vanilla. The layers of cardstock and DSP are sponged on the edges in Close to Cocoa ink. Miss Sock Monkey's eyelashes were added with a Basic Black Stampin' Write marker. A few clear Dew Drops round out the card.

She was very fun to coax to life!
