Here is my creation of "Fail to Bail".

This is another super-cool image I had the fabulous opportunity to work with. 

I used ProMarkers and as usual, I started with skin and hair. I decided this chick could definitely pull off blue hair so needed to match the skin tones with the brightness of the hair colour. 

After the skin and hair was coloured, I worked on the outfit. I again wanted to chose bright colours so picked purple and orange. 

I finished the image by colouring the skateboard with a range of colours I had already used.

I used a bright coloured but distressed stripey paper with a grungey number border for the background. Because the image and background paper was so colourful, I wanted to minimalise the embellishments I used. 

I chose the letters and numbers - s, k, 8, 2, 4 & 7 to spell skate twenty-four-seven.

I thought it was a fun way to spell out what the girl in the image may be thinking. (See, I'm still down with the kids!!)

To make the numbers and letters stand out, I inked them with clear embossing powder and heat embossed them with blue glass powder. When the embossing powder was still wet, I sprinkled gold embossing powder over the top and re-heated so the gold melted in to the blue in areas.

I attached these over the grungy numbers border of the background paper in a horizontal/vertical arrangement.

I added a rose (which was white to start with and coloured with a ProMarker) and a wax leaf to mirror the rose/leaf design on the 
skateboard. 

To finish I added the gold triple ball chain along the bottom. 

I think you will agree,another fab design from The Stamping Chef!!!
