Going Dottie!

I've been playing around with Lou's Dottie images again and decided to have a go at the challenge on the Dottie blog which was.........
"Right the first challenge is set by me (Louise). I want you to make a card or layout using paper piecing on any Dottie or George image, but that's not all! I want you then to use the same paper as part of your card's background." ......... so this is the card I came up with....

I picked out a scrap of Sassafras Lass polka dot red paper and used it for Dottie's dress (it's the cheerleader Dottie from the dress up Dottie collection) and socks then I cut out little circles of it to decorate the background. Her little shoes are Bazzill card and the rest I coloured in with watercolour pencils and gel pens. I made some finger pom poms from fibers too - just thought it looked more fun - then added the message.
