Painting ladybug

Hello, again!
This is another card I made and would like to show you:

The image is From the Heart Stamps: Painting Ladybug. I colored it with alcohol based markers (Kuretake), and made some lines with a white pencil to imitate brightness and I like the effect. I used a green ink pad to distressed the edges.

I used green cardstock and a flowers embossing folder for the background, some pink dp with multicolor flowers and glitter and lots of sparkle (the picture doesn't show very well).

I used my sewing machine and made three lines of holes in the left edge to make the stitching that shows the sketch. I used a pink/green ribbon. I used one of the sentiments that comes in the set, started being a tag, then I cut a little bit, then another little and finally left just a big sentiment. I die cut a flower from some magazine paper and distressed the edges with an ink pad and finished it with a big rhinestone.
