Purple Hair Don’t Care | Iris Fox

Hello lovelies, my name is Iris Fox and I am thrilled to be the guest designer for November!  When Jodi sent me some sequins to play with, I immediately gravitated towards the Trippy Tanzanite mix.  It’s perfect for documenting my purple hair adventure this year!

I also got my first Shimmerz Paints ever and they are so fun.  I started off by mixing the Orchid-stra Shimmerz with a little Distress Oxide in Seedless Preserves and Shaded Lilac to get a couple of color variations.  With a wet brush, I painted the center of my page in a circular motion and a few swipes around the sides.  Then I mixed the Pixie Dust Blingz with Distress Ink in Tumbled Glass and splattered it on top.  I’m so in love with all the shimmer.

I cut a couple thin circles from some scrap papers and machine stitched overlapping circles with a variegated thread in shades of purple. Once I had my title placed above and below my photos, to follow along with the purple hair and aqua shirt, I embellished with Cocoa Vanilla Studio Bohemian Dream die-cuts, chipboard, and flair. I had quite a bit to write, so I numbered the sections so you know which way to read.  The final touch were the leaf shaped sequins tucked into my clusters and the circle sequins glued along the stitching on both sides.

I’m loving this opportunity to get playful with sequins and a little mixed media and am excited to share my other creations throughout the month!
