This photo transfer was made using the same technique as the first one. This time, I left the color print to dry overnight. After it was dry, I sprayed it with water and peeled it off to reveal the image underneath. It peeled up at the bottom but I actually like the edges to look imperfect.
I used free cross-stitching to accent her braid, her sweater, and her necklace.
Again, colored pencils were used to highlight the eyes and mouth and a fine point pen for some details. I also sponged ‘Red Brick’ Distress Ink onto her cheeks.
Searching thr0ugh my stash of text w0rds, I found this phrase…
I’m finishing up a third transfer this week so I’ll post some photos of it soon. Hope you’re having a great start to your New Year and I always appreciate the visits and comments!

The words you used add so much depth to your work. I’m loving how the stitching adds that extra dimension!
