At the Grooming Parlour!

I bought a beautiful Kanban stamp set at the SECC last October for an absolute bargain, about £2 I think, but hadn't got round to inking them up.  I decided to have a play and chose this gorgeously cute stamp of a wee girl grooming her dog.  There are two large image stamps as well has a whole load of sentiment stamps, and the images are lovely and big making them such fun to colour.
 I've used Promarkers, as per usual, to colour the image.  The papers are Papermania Hot Diggedy Dog, to which I've added chocolate brown pearl card.  I don't have much of the paper pack left as it's such a pretty stack that has been used time and time again.
I've managed to include my usual ribbon and bow, along with layered round buttons, flower shaped buttons which I've topped with pink gems, and some pretty pink pearls.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges -
