Introducing Creeper LULA!
Isn't she one sassy gal?! I'm thinking she's giving Piper and Jill (one of my faves) a run for their money. She looks uber cool with her arm warmers and bad ass boots. She reminds me of me in my hay day minus the crazy pink & purple curly hair :)
Medium: Prismacolor Pencils
Specialty Paper (Face and Bangs)
As I mentioned yesterday, I wanted to showcase several sides of my styles. Today I have for you what I call the "Violent Pink Effect". Lol! I call it this because I love the color combo black, pink and white but because I prefer the hot bright pinks that can be overwhelming. Ahhhh but Lula can handle it :)
I have to be honest, I was a bit intimidated by her hair (not the bangs but the curly part). I did do a test run (lol) to see how I would color her hair and how I would like it, weeeeell it turned out eh, a little flat. Those tight curls were hard for me to shadow plus I'm trying out new paper so I think that adds to it. So after a bit of hemming and hawing I decided to paper piece her together. So out comes the scissors and Lula is shred to pieces. I paper pieced her from head to toes. Lol. The only colored part is her face, bangs, arms and stockings. I had tried paper piecing before but not like this. I'm thinking I'm done with paper piecing for a bit because those tiny pieces were Arrrgggghhh!!! hehe. Plus I prefer my pencils. They've been good to me :D
Now for the good good stuff :)... Want a chance to win you own Creeper LULA? Leave some bloggy love here, some for the amazing Farmers and at the TGF Blog. I hear LULA is playing hide and seek in one of our blogs and you can be the lucky winner.
