Guess I shopped the stash

I don't really have a good system for storing digis, so I sometimes am surprised to find an image I've never used before. I came across this cutie from Paper Cupcakes recently and thought it would make a fun card. The sketch is from Sketch Saturday #229.

The girl is colored with pencils and matted on black The red print is from Pebbles. (I like how it has a similar flower to the one on the girl's hat.)  For the sentiment, I black-embossed on vellum and used black half-pearls to hide the adhesive.

The card is for the following challenges

    Hi Sandy, I got a request from you to join a yahoo group I run--so I came to check you out. First off you appear to be a real person! (or you could be my imaginary friend) and second off you appear to be a stamper! Well that's exciting! I'm not sure how you found us but color me intrigued.

    I like your card very much and having zero experience with digis I can't give any advice on how to store them.
