Simon Says Stamp and Show - Anything goes

So I finally can post something again.  This is a head I completed a little while ago and have been waiting to show it off.  Started off as a styrofoam head, which I covered in strips of news print.  I then used distress inks to distress it.  You can see she has a huge earring which was actually a brooch my girl friend found at a thrift store.  She also has real "false" eyelashes that I wore to a Halloween Party one year.


This is a side view.  I had butterfly stickers which I used on her cheek.  The lace that I used on her head was just some old lace I had.  The feathers I also bought at a dollar store long ago and thought it would give her a Gatsby feel.


Her choker around her neck I crocheted using jewellery wire.  I could have maybe made it a little thicker so it stood out a bit more.  Next time I will remember to do this!


The flower I used I cut with my cricut, distressed them and layered them together.  The centre piece was a ready made flower I had lying around.

Well that is it.  She just needs a name if anybody has any ideas.  Hope you enjoy it.

Love

Michele
