Kelli Dubay's original is so hot that there was no way to rip it entirely successfully so I did the best I could. Her paintings are pure emotion and speak to me, I didn't even try to pull that off in this one. This is the first time I have ever used a knife to paint, that was a lot of fun and wonderfully messy. I don't know if it is suppose to be so messy but for me it was. I did use a brush for the cute little fairies in the eyes. Instead of a white streak for the shine in it's eyes I thought the cute little fairies would tie it into something I would do.
