Introducing 'MDF Portrait Media Blanks - Flick & Fringe' @ Paperbabe Stamps

Hiya and Welcome to my Blog Today

This Week the Design Team are showcasing the New MDF Portrait Media Blanks - Please visit the Paperbabe Stamps Blog to see Kim's gorgeous make and links to other Team Members Blog Posts - so much Yummy Inspiration

Today is my turn to Show my Make using the 'Flick & Fringe' variation

I had a lot of fun creating this and getting all painty. First I painted all the pieces using Clear Gesso, once dry I then painted 2 coats of White Chalky Paint

Next I painted the Face, Torso/Neck and a spacing disc using a basic flesh tone I mixed using Acryllic Paint

I then painted a base coat of a Lilac colour I mixed using acrylic paint

These base layers were a starting point for painting all the details onto the corect areas of the Portrait

I used Acryllic paints to paint the shading and details onto the hair pieces. I used the 'Mini Doll Face' stamp set to plot out her facial features which I then blended several flesh tones to add highlights a details to her face. Once dry I then painted in her Eyes, Eyebrows, Mouth

For her Blouse I stamped the 'Peony' stamp from the 'Oriental Zen' stamp set onto the prepared Blouse Pieces to create a Floral Pattern which I then painted using Acrylic Paints. Once all the pieces were fully dry I then used Tacky PVA Glue to fix them all together - I decided to mount her onto the Stand but is the option to hang on the wall instead using the hanging holes at the back

Hiya and welcome to my Blog... firstly I need to appologise, I was offline all day yesterday and my post which was scheduled didn't go live so I have edited and shared today instead 

This week at Paperbabe has been very exciting... loads of new products released including Mixed Media Templates in both the standard Doll Face size, the New Mini Doll Face size and the new Profile View Face size too they are all so much fun to use and the New Stamps are Gorgeous

Head over to the Paperbabe Blog to see the Gorgeous Projects from our Kim and the Paperbabe Team

Last but certainly not least we are sharing our Projects using the New Digi Image 'Mayleedee - Wonderland' who is stunning and a tribute to my Fave Ever! Book 'Alice in Wonderland' which is a fabulous 150 years old Wowser!!

Here is my project for 'Mayleedee - Wonderland'

I have coloured her using Copic Markers and for a change I used blendable coloured pencils over the top to add depth

I matched up some papers and flowers - I wanted to keep the layout simple so the Image is the main focus

The Sentiment I created using the Letters from the 'Watercolour Alphabets' set (also from Paperbabe and available on the Etsy Store
