I created another page in my summer journal and trying hard to stick with flat embellishments. However, all those small things add up and the book is starting to bulge! I might have to stop at 10 pages and start another book - either that or find an easy method of book binding. Any ideas?

I embellished it with a few odds and ends from around my desk area plus some of my favorite chippies from Make it Crafty. I covered them with a Gold Adirondack Acrylic Paint Dabber and cut around the some parts to make it fit. Then I sprinkled on a few pearls and gems and finished it up with a blue dragonfly.

Here's a close up of Quinceañera Dance with her green dress and long wavy hair. I couldn't resit adding a little sparkle and added the flower gem in her hair. Now she's ready for her big birthday celebration!

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:
Moving Along with the Times Challenge - favorite things (princess girls)
