This week's One Layer Wednesday challenge is
Cream, Black and Bling and retired products - Cornish Heritage Farms Backgrounders (Scalloped Tiles, Art Nouveau) and wood-mounted A Muse Artstamps sentiments. BTW - I just made up the part about using retired products but feel free to if you want. . .
The bling comes from a strip of double-sided tape sprinkled with Martha Stewart Onyx glitter. This combo makes a simple but elegant look. Guess what else I worked on?
I am taking
Pam Carriker's Pursue Portraits class. Funny, I never took an online class until last year but I've really been enjoying them lately.
I drew these faces after watching the first 8 minutes of Lesson One - I'm going to go watch more and learn about shading - WHOO HOO! Can't wait to see what I can do after 6 lessons!!
In the past when I've tried to make faces the eyes were invariably too large and way too high on the face. Good to finally learn the rules of symmetry for face drawing - maybe with practice, I will one day produce something that looks like a real person. . .kinda sorta.

I love the layout you used on this card, Michelle! I've not tried putting the bling on the tape, but it's a great idea. Good job with the face drawings, too!
