Cool Mohawk Chicks! (08/31/2015)

Today's cards were inspired (cough, cough, totally scraplifted!) from Demo Donna's awesome video: Cool Chick Makeover, Liquid Pearls #16. It is a MUST SEE!! I made multiple versions of this card - this is the front of all of them:
I used Sparkle N Sprinkle's Birds of a Feather Stamp Set 726P5. I stamped out the larger chick, with her string of pearls, on the front. Just like Demo Donna, I also gave her a mohawk, some spikes on her shoes, and a little tattoo! After coloring the image with Copic markers, I added in Viva Pearl Pen to give her pearl necklace some dimension. 
I stamped out the sentiment, colored over it with a Copic marker, then used a Sakura Glue Pen to scribble some glue somewhat strategically over the middle line. I sprinkled on Bubble Gum Semi-transparent Glitter G1088, and added dimension to some of the sentiment with a Viva Pearl Pen.
I did two options for the inside. For this one, I stamped out the chick with the purse, from the Birds of a Feather Stamp Set 726P5, and colored her with Copic markers. I stamped the sentiment in Versamark Ink VM-001, then covered it with Blue Silver Embossing Powder EP446, and heat set it.
Here is a closeup, which helps show how awesome the Blue Silver Embossing Powder EP446 is. It is so great, so rich!
The other inside was the same as above, except the sentiment was a birthday sentiment. Here it is:

These cards were really fun to make - and Demo Donna really inspired me with her incredible cards! I loved her take on adding to the stamp by drawing in the mohawk and spiked heels. I think I'll try this type of thing on additional stamps in the future! Boom!

Thanks for stopping by, have a magical day!
