This is Matilda a.k.a. "ice cream hair girl".
The color scheme ended up being kind of chocolate/cherry. I've dubbed her my problem child in this post because this is about the 5th version of this box! She just wouldn't come together and honestly, I'm still not sure she's quite right. Hmmm. Maybe she's too pale for her pink hair? I don't know. What do you think?
Here's where she came from originally: And here she is about 3 incarnations into the process…
I liked what was happening with her hair at this point, so I kept that. But the color scheme felt weird. What can I say, sometimes it flows ~ sometimes not!
Suggestions?

Hi Karen, did you get Matilda all worked out? The only thing I could think of is that there might be too much contrast between Matilda and the background, but I am certainly no expert…
I also wanted to let you know that I have awarded you the Lemonade Award for great Gratitude and/or Attitude. Looking at your blog I always feel uplifted!! Just go to my blog and copy the award from there!

Good morning, Silke!
Thanks so much for the award ~ how sweet! 🙂 I’ll have to think of who to pass it on to now. Hmmmm.
Good idea on Matilda…maybe I’ll try painting a pale pink up next to her and blend it out to darker on the edges only.
