Girls, Girls, Girls

Hello Lovelies,

I've got a new page done in my Octopode Factory Storybook, which means there's a new TOFF challenge! For this challenge the theme is lovely ladies. I am also entering this page in the last official Altered Alice Challenge, which I have mentioned before is sad news because they are no longer able to do monthly challenges but I am happy to say I was able to be a part of their last challenge.

I was inspired to make this page the other day because I was just feeling like it sucks to be a girl sometimes, enough said, right?

I wanted to make it very girly thus, all the pink. Before I get into the page itself I want to talk about the background. For those of you who saw my video on the first page in my Octopode Factory Storybook you saw that I sprayed some Heidi Swapp color shine on the second page. I then sprayed some dylusions on top using a lined stencil but the colors came out way to dark and all mucky. I didn't like it so I tried to remove all the color with a baby wipe and luckly it all wiped away and left this really cool wiped effect where all the colors blended together. I then used bubblegum pink and funky fuchsia dylusions and used the fish scales stencil.

I colored Alice in with my copics but her face got damaged in the process of making this page and I had to redo her face 3 time! I just printed out a new image colored in only her head and half body and glued it on top with gel medium.

i used some gelatos around the pink paper and used Sally's Abc's which is a Lawn Fawn Alphabet stamp set. Again, I wanted to make it as girly and dainty as possible because I wanted to write the sucks in a messy graffiti wall style font. And I outlined everything in pink and/or black.

Would love to hear what you guys think!
