Water Color Pencil Painting


Basically what a water color pencil painting (I'm not really sure if that's what its called!) is is a drawing that's been colored in with water color pencils. Then, I paint with water over the water color pencils with a thin coat of water on each little spot. (Example: A petal, or a leaf, all painted separately) 

Step 1 - Draw and Outline


Step 2 - Color with water color pencils


Step 3 - Paint with water, add a background and frame. 

My First Barbie Outfit

I made an outfit for my barbie using materials from JOANN Fabrics. I even made the background and it's supposed to look like a red carpet.....I don't think it does. The last one is a bit fuzzy...




I made this a while ago (maybe in January or something...) and I forgot where I put the doll, so.....
I designed it and I sewed it together and my mom said it was too loose and she showed me how to re-sew it with her sewing machine. It took forever to sew the straps on and my mom used the machine to sew on the velcro strips on the back.


PS- I got a fashion sewing kit from my mom for my birthday last year and I figured that I should actually make something rather that just staring at the pretty fabrics...
So here is the outcome! It's the first time I sewed anything together and I guess I did a pretty good job, don't you think so too?
