That's so you

Just... I don't know. A self-portrait. Lol.


I'm sick (have fever) and too much time on my hands. And I feel sad (but I most often do). 

I have submitted my portrait/drawing to the following challenges:
All That Stickles: Fall Harvest Linky Party
CAS-ual Fridays: Fall colors & leaf
Challenges 4 Everybody: Anything goes
CMC Copic Challenge Group: Anything goes
Creative inspirations: Anything goes
Fab 'n' Funky: Leaves
Make My Monday: Flowers or Trees 
One Stitch at a Time: Anything goes 
Sunday Stamps: We're going with gold (I used golden acrylic paint as a final touch on the coral hair and mint green clothing)
The Corrosive Challenge Blog: Maiden 
Top Tip Tuesday: Leave a tip 
Tip: Try to make cards during the day, or buy a daylight bulb for your craft room. This will cut down on eye strain and make it easier to match colours. 
613 Avenue: Anything goes

Card-recipe 
*Background: Page from a fairytale book named Godnattsagor by Förlaget Kärnan Ab Helsingborg
*Copics used: Chamois (hair)
*Craft paint used: white (over the eyes), red + golden (for cheeks), golden (for hair + clothing)
*Promarkers used: Almond (for skin), Mint Green (clothing), Cocoa (hair), Burnt Orange (hair), Pumpkin (hair), Buttercup (hair), Sandstone (hair)
*Red rose: Panduro 
*Stickles used: Waterfall (eyes), Fruit Punch (lips)

Ps. Oh my golden hair, look at what an amazing card Kaija did with this image.

    Hello Wio!
    What an artist you are, is it true that I can take and make it a card? Did I understand correctly :) I would like to have a look I get the same kind of fresh and delightful as you are ..
    Hugs Kaija<3

      Trevligt att höra det, kan jag försöka göra en bild av ditt kort :)
      Jag hade ingen aning om att du är Swensk:)
      I själva verket var jag bara i Stockholmsområdet för ett par dagar.
      Jag har bott i Sverige de senaste 13 åren.
      Kram Kaija<3

      Hej igen Kaija! Ursäkta, jag trodde att jag redan hade svarat. Vad fint kortet blev! Kul att du nyligen varit i Stockholm. Jag brukar befinna mig mer söderut (Småland). Tidigare bodde jag i Skåne. Oj, där ser man :) Jag har alltid bott här i Sverige. Kram
