On top of this I added strips of dry wall tape. This is the first time I've used that and I'm sure I will be playing with it again soon.
Next I took some Gelatos and a wet brush and added color.
The colors were a bit more vibrant than what I had envisioned so I took some watered down gesso and covered it.
Ok...now I'm ready...
There was a quote challenge on Soul Scrappers and I knew exactly how I wanted to use it.
Here is the quote:
"Be a girl with a mind,
A woman with an attitude
And a lady with class."

I had recently purchased 3 of the Julie Nutting/Prima Doll stamps and they were just perfect! I took some StazOn Jet Black ink and stamped them on an off white cardstock and then fussy cut them out. I stamped them again on various patterned papers and fussy cut their clothes, shoes and hair. I took a flesh colored Spectrum Noir pen and added a bit of color to the skin. I printed the quote on a peachy-pink patterned paper in separate lines and I cut them out with a ragged edged tearing ruler.
I laid the dolls and the quote out and moved them around until I got them where I wanted them and then I glued them down. I covered it all with a coat of ModPodge Matte Medium.
I have also entered this in Flying Unicorn June Valley of the Paper Dolls challenge, A2Z Scraplets June challenge for an Off-the-Page Project, a Blog Named Hero challenge #45 It's not in the Cards calling for anything but a card, 4 Crafty Chicks Crazy Egg challenge #196 Anything Goes and Pinque Peacock challenge #6 Anything Goes.
Now all that's left to do is finish it up with some embellishing...
So come back tomorrow and see what I've opted for...
