This is one of those sites where you just don't know which stamp to choose, they are all so cute!  It was hard, but I decided to go with this cute little girl cause I love her shy demeanor, and all that hair!!  Her name is Bashful Buttons & Bows Boo:



I chose to go with a green theme.  I love me some green.  I know a lot of people would grab the pinks, purples, reds or grays, well for me it's green.  I think it's a color that doesn't get a lot of love and there are so many cool shades of it.  Here are the layers: Tsumugi Hiwa cardstock (Although it looks like white or ivory that color is actually a little more celery green when you get to the center of the celery stalk (hahaha, sorry that's all I could think of to compare the color to)), green patterned paper from DCWV Emerald Garden stack, sheer green polka dot ribbon, green button, green/silver floss, Sizzix Thinlit doily die with Tsumugi Hiwa cs, dark green felt rosette (CC Cutters) & green burlap leaves. Little Miss BBB Boo is colored with Copics and her buttons have diamond glaze on them.
