Hello everyone!
This is my second post of the day.
To see my RED CARPET STUDIOS post, scroll on down.
Today is the 15th and it's the day I "duel" with some of my friends from Split Coast Stampers.
We are the Dueling Darlings. There are 2 teams, the Divas and the Dazzlers. I'm a Dazzler! You can find the blog list for this wonderful group of ladies in my left sidebar.
This month Katie, from the Divas and April from the Dazzlers wanted us to show our heritage. Well, I've never done much studying on my genealogy (probably scared to find out what some of my ancestors were like! LOL). I really should though. I love watching the television show "Who Do You Think You Are?". I've been told that I have some Irish blood in me and I know that my grandmother (my Mother's mother) was part Indian, Cherokee I believe. Now, what percentage of Indian she was, I'm not sure but in her younger days she had black, silky hair. She was also short in stature and had a flaming temper. :) Ha Ha! So, I know she had a lot of Indian in her. LOL
I decided to show pride in my Indian Heritage with my project:
I used red, white and blue along with black so I could use the pretty ribbons and pearls that April sent along with her cute CTMH images.
Here's a close up of "mini me". WOW! Do I ever wish my legs and hips were that small! And yes, if I didn't color my hair.....I believe this would be my color! *giggle*
I colored the image with Spectrum Noir markers and used a Zig, Wink of Pearl marker around the edges.
I wanted to make her dress look Native American. I don't know if I succeeded, but I like the outcome.
Thanks for stopping by!
I can't wait to see what my other Dueling Sisters made. :)
Until next time...
Blessings...
