Diva-licious

I honestly couldn't resist playing with this Sassy Studio Designs image Evenora. She screamed Diva to me, and she has to be an artist going to a ball. I thought about actors and singers walking down the red carpet in various styles of fashion, and the fuss about what they were wearing the next day. Since I have been working on my gothic coloring, the shades of grey came to mind first, and then I decided on a real jewel tone, and went with green.

Spectrum Noir markers:
Face and Dress: IG1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9
Feathers and Cape: LG1, 3, ,5 and JG1 and 3


She needed more bling though, so I added a bit of glitter to her feathers and cape using Martha Stewart's glitter pen, Verdalite. That still wasn't enough, so I popped her up on a jewel green glitter cardstock. I use my Sizzix Framelits for these cuts. 

After that, I went back to the idea of the red carpet. It seemed like a fantastic juxtaposition against the gothic coloring, and I used this beautiful background paper from Creative Imaginations (Elegance stack).
