We were given some digi designs to work with and this girl was the one I was assigned to work with. I must confess that this is the first time that I have worked with these designs and so I did have a look at Pinterest before I set out on this project. Those of you that know me, know that this style is very far from my comfort zone, especially the pink!
So I printed off image and cut it out with an oval die. I coloured it using promarkers. I used several and don't know if I will remember them all.
skin: blush, satin and oatmeal
eyes: April showers and denim blue
hat, dress, shoes: April showers, denim blue, cornflower and china blue
t-shirt, socks:
ribbons: dusky pink. amethyst and magenta
flowers: magenta and gold
hair: ivory, pastel beige, sandstone.caramel
ground: warm grey 1
Then I matted on black, cut a bigger oval in light blue that looks light April showers and matted this on black again.
Then I turned to my spellbinders and cut several dies from card that matched the promarkers on the dress. Most of them are from the Heartfelt Creations range.
I arranged them as shown, after I had matted the light blue on black on the base card. After I had stuck down the bigger oval, I attached a strip of black to which I had attached some black lace.
I stuck down the main image with foam pads for some dimension and then turned to the flowers. I rummaged in my stash of Sweet Lilac flowers to find ones that matched my colour palette and arranged them as shown.
I finished the card with glossy accents to eyes and buttons and some pearls.
I hope you enjoy my first My Besties, please be gentle and join us over at FFFC, Theresa xx
