AMR Wednesday Product Challenge LO

This is the challenge I posted today at AMR.

I want this LO to be mostly paper. I used Basic Grey, Hey Sugar.  Paper or pp has to be die cut or punched all the way around, any size.
Layered 
You can add 5 beads or jewels, 
two trinkets (bow DD wore, heart from me) 
& a pc. of lace or ribbon 9" long. 
You can sew everything onto the LO if you want, not necessary
Distressing or inking edges look great but not necessary, up to you

Supplies:

PP-Cosmo Cricket, Hey Sugar

Barrett-T's

Lace/ribbon-My ribbon jar

Silver heart-My trinket jr

Beads-My bead jar

Punch-Martha Stewart, lace

This is a LO of our DD, before we took her home from the hospital.  There's a tag behind the stripped paper with birth details.  The journaling paper is behind the pink punched CS.  I did lots of sewing, distressing/inking.  TFL...............
