Variations Week: Karina's View

Hello everyone, yay... we have Variations Week again. I really love when everyone is playing with the same image and to see how everyone's project turned out. It always amazes me how different each artwork is although all are working with the same stamp.

This week we show you 'Dreaming of Aquamarine Tide' by the fabulous artist Katerina Koukiotis. She is available as rubber. Below you can see my creation;


I just love faces to play with, so this one was a big pleasure and a bit of a challenge too, as I wanted to add a kind of a shell pattern to her face what I made with some Frantage Mica Fragments and some iridescent Stickles. I really must say I love how it turned out. On the photo below you have a better view to this effect. The colouring of her is made with Copics and the background papers I used are Maja Design.


Thanky you so much for looking. Wish you a wonderful day now!
Hugs, Karina

    Karina, this is beautiful! I love colouring faces too and I just *love* how you've coloured this image.. the soft skin tones with the blue accents and shading. Such a stunning contrast. I love the mica/stickles effect too and the pretty details on the card- the decorative corners and the flowers and shells - are just perfect.

    Karina... STUNNING! I love everything about this. Love the blue. I love the embellishemnt that is under the flower, kind of looks like it could be an earing or maybe a hair tie in her hair. Breath taking!
