My latest DT piece for That Craft Place Challenge- Think Pink
Take part 13th October

Think pink is the latest challenge so I went for something very girly for me! I don't have total aversion to pink, just had too much as a kid; mum even decorated my room from floor to ceiling!

I was much happier with purple magic roundabout wallpaper!!

My creation was inspired by the wonderful altered art dolls by Artists Denise Phillips & Mary Jane Chadbourne



I made mine from a small T shirt box covering in Paperartsy nougat, Decoart 2 step crackle
Followed by pickled raspberry (even Mr Holtz can’t say pink!) followed by a black wash

Beads for the arms and legs and fasteners for the feet. The wings and crown are Tim Holtz Ideology Her tutu is pink net and ribbon stapled into pleats with some braid for the belt

Her beautiful pink heart was made from paper clay painted with raspberry and covered with you guessed its pink rhinestones

Phew!! too much pink! I think!!
