I wanted to give this portrait dimension for a splash of fun. The original photo had a flower in the hair of the little girl, so I had some old flowers from a worn out bouquet. I colored the petals with colored pencils, but it didn't seem to brighten it up enough. So, I found some glitter glue in a bottle, and spread that down the centers of the petals to create the hair flower. Well, I had some gliter left over, and I didn't want the big girl to not be flashy like her little sister, so just made squiggly stripes across the blouse area. It seems to be holding up well, I have rolled that thing up 20 times, and the glitter is still holding strong.
