Here is my creation:
I used some scrap papers from Club Scrap. I've used several dies.. The edge border is from Memory Box. The corner, circle and label is from Spellbinders. I added some stitching, gems and the buttons and twine. The image is Alligator Tears from QKR Stampede. I colored the image with my Copic markers and did a little decoupage. I layered up everything except for the back hand and leg, then again the front leg and arm.
Copic:
- Alligator: G20, G21, G24, G28, G29
- Tears: B91, B93, B95
