Use Your Words Challenge

September 1 Challenge-Tough
“When somebody challenges you, fight back. Be brutal, be tough.”
Donald Trump
 
This is my first Entry for the challenge over at Use Your Words. The word was TOUGH and I really wasn't sure how the heck I could use that on a LO! I really wanted to use this picture of my DD and as I was working on it the Title just came to me!
 
This sketch was for another challenge at Purple Pumpkin - Another first for me but I really wanted to give it a try. I stepped out of my Comfort Zone and went a little artsy funky for me but it was fun and the  result was exciting!  

September sketch challenge!!!

 
 
 
I chose this Picture of my DD acting a little silly/crazy ...not her norm! I just love capturing this FUN side of her! I wanted the LO to be pretty but edgy at the same time to reflect how she was acting when the picture was taken.

Supplies used -
Paper and embellies - Prima Lyric Collection
Martha Stewart Punch for Circe Frame - Brandi's Tip in the Forum
Pink Paislee Artisan Elements
Faber Castell Gelatos in Metallic Melon and Chocolate
Crafters Workshop Brick Stencil
Bo Bunny Stamps
