Pastel Goth Girl



This image probably doesn't appeal to many but I love it! I have been wanting some of these "goth" type stamps from Stampotique now for 2 years. I saw them in a catalogue and knew that oneday I'd snag a couple of my own. They are very Tim Burton-esque. One of my all time favorite movies is Nightmare Before Christmas!


This is also my first image I've used with my Copic markers. I didn't go too crazy with blending, I stuck to pastel pinks, blues, purples and greys. She's also got frosted lace stickles in her hair and on her dress. I also tried out the new memento ink by Tsukineko. I didn't heat set it or wait long for it to dry before i started coloring with the copic markers. I'm pleased to say NO smudging at all. I grabbed tuxedo black, london fog (grey) and a dark brown.
