One for all the Mermaids out there. That is me included.
Had lot of fun creating the coral reef for this special little mermaid.
The background is a water coloured panel - just on plain white card. I stamped the mermaid and shell/flower border onto the panel using Misti to get a nice dark impression. The image was then clear embossed. I stamped another image on white card and coloured it before fussy cutting and layering on the water coloured background.
Then the fun started. Out came all the cute little Lavinia Stamps to use to create a coral reef background using lots of different stamps and distress inks. I used a clean aqua brush to move some of the distress inks around the panel to give it a softer feel. Followed all this with a dash (ha ha) of liquid pearls and glitter glue. Lots of sparkle on this one.
This card will be for my Canadian Friend - she too is a Mermaid - but being born in the middle of Canada is a fresh water mermaid and is now only beginning to feel at home in the salty ocean.
Hope you enjoy.
