ok so this started off as an idea talking about teenage girls, (my sister in law has 4 girls aged from twin newborns , a 2 year old and an 8 year old,)

so what are teenage girls  like , moody or angelic
depends on the day the mood and the weather lol

anyway enough blathering here it is

i painted the mdf with gesso, then layered different sheets of printed tissue paper,
the girls are printed and coloured with Spectrum noir pens and pencils.
then fussy cut and glued down, the tiles are also available on the Etsy store,
these where printed cut and topped with glossy accents.
the tissue is glued with cosmic shimmer matt glue, glaze & seal.
