This is the stunning Octavia soft sand digi from Sweet November stamps. I love her! I had so much fun colouring her with all those tentacles. I coloured her with the following copics:
Hair: C3, C1
Skin: E33, E21, E00
Tentacles: R59, R37, R35, R22
Suckers: E31, E50
Starfish top: Y21, Y02, Y00
Background: B00, B000
For the background I did some ink smooshing. I used Tumbled glass, salty ocean and chipped sapphire distress ink for this smooshing. I tore the edges of the navy card and my image then had drew the stitched edge around the image. For a last bit of sparkle and texture I added some blue lagoon nuvo drops.
I am entering this card for the following challenges:
The fairy and the unicorn - Anything fantasy goes
Sisterhood of narky stampers - T is for technique ( ink smooshing)
