new flapper girl purses ideas

I have been so busy with the holidays and family events and yes…. facebook….. that I seem to post less of my art works and things… I will try to be better at posting more. Sorry… this is some photos of a flapper being born. hahaa…..First I drew her out line with a pencil on canvas material ,then cut it out.

next painted canvas with Gesso then painted her flesh tone and gave her some black outlined features yes it is sharpies permanent marker.

Used Black suede for her hair, some really fun textures here, brown thin suede for her scarf, her hat is made of leather..

The flower and decoration are from an skirt , I had it’s sewn in black thread and made of cotton.

recovered the purse with pretty blue sparkle material, the photo doesn’t do it justice.

Next I took the Sharie and turned the inner material black it was a funky blue jean I didn’t like so went with black inside gave it a whole new pretty look….
added some more bling….lol

TADA………love my new deco purses, need to find more to redo… hahaa……….
