Katniss

Here she is.  I wanted to color her dress depicting the fire, so I started with yellow at the top and slowly blended it to a red at the bottom.  Then I coloried it with my Versa Mark pen and  used Stamping Up Iridescent Ice to emboss it to make it all glittery and shiny. I mean it is suppose to represent fire after all.   After I got her colored, I then went looking for paper to match.  Kind of putting the cart before the horse, wouldn't you say?  Thank heavens I had Stella Ruby from Basic Grey because that is just what the doctor ordered.  I used the Spellbinders Floral Die to cut her out.  Its a little tricky getting the paper out of the die but I love this die.  Then it was some punches and a few pearls and she was finished. The image is from Sassy Studio Design .  If you like to color people this is the place to get digi stamps.    http://sassystudiodesigns.blogspot.com Inside I used the greeting that says "You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have"  I thought that worked.
