Sewing on papers

So this little guy caused me fits. I remade, recarved, etc.  



I drew out a dress form, but made it short (more for a little girl). Then I took a sharpie to my drawing to thicken up some of the lines, and then carved it with a needle. One it was done I went back over the carving with a gouge to change the look of the lines.    The background paper is blue and green. The  material is ripped apart rather than cut.  To add shimmer to the black paper I  took a blending tool dipped it into water and sprayed it with perfect pearls.  After it dried I took all the pieces and sewed them onto the paper. I added my accents and made sure to add a yellow ribbon in support of the troops.
