I do have to tell you that in real life, the image frame and the sentiment layer are much closer to the tones of the patterned papers. I just could not get a natural looking photo. Anyway, I coloured Libby with my trusty Copics and sponged around the die frame with a green chalk ink before removing the cardstock. I then took the die and drew around the outside on the pink cardstock to create a frame for the image layer. I used some lovely Daisy D Sweet Baby Jane patterned papers. I have had them a long time, but I just love them. I matted each layer of paper onto some light green cardstock and the base is white. I heat embossed the sentiment on pink, using Winter White embossing powder. I wanted to keep the look soft, so I didn't use black ink. I added some lovely sheer white ribbon and a bow across the centre and finished it off with a couple of ice cream cone embellies on the right. I was quite happy with this one and I had fun making it.
