Some Odd Girl - Roller Mae

Hi All!!  Popping in today bringing you a sweet image from Some Odd Girl.  This darling image is called Roller Mae.  Isn't she FABULOUS?  I love her 'vintage' style roller skates.  I totally rocked these during my entire 80's childhood!  (hehe!)  We are running digi features about every two weeks over at the Odd Girl blog.  And right now, this image is 25% off!! 

I colored her with my Copics using lots of colors!  Her rainbow legwarmers (or toe socks...remember those?!?!)  are my favorite!  I created texture on her jeans using an tiny scrap of denim fabric and my colorless blender ink refill.  First, you color your image.  Then you dab a bit of the refill onto the denim scrap and press onto the area where you want the texture.  The colorless refill will pick up the color leaving the texture in its place.  It's so fun!  I used a nice thick coat of Glossy Accents on her roller skates to get them to a perfect shine. 

The DP is from American Crafts.  I used a sentiment from the Lovey Tobie Clear Set.  I inked it with white craft ink, coated in white embossing powder and heat set.

Thanks for popping in today!!
