My little mermaids arrived from hAnglar and StAnglar a little while ago and I've been desparate to use them! The sketch challenge at
Lovely hAnglar Only seemed the perfect excuse to ink them up.
I opted for some green toned paper from Prima and layered this with some Coredinations whitewash card, putting faux stitching around the edges (not sure that it shows in the photos) using a white gel pen. I stamped the main image and then masked it so that I could stamp over the top of it. I used the seaweed stamp from the same set and stamped using Versamark ink. I then went over the background with some green chalk so make the seaweed show up.
I coloured with my little mermaid with Copics before giving her tail, top and headband a good sprinkling of Glamour Dust. I then made some bubbles by dotting Glossy Accents around the background.
For the finishing embellies I added tiny pearls, roses and a crystal spray, all from Wild Orchid Crafts. The crystal embellie is instead of a sentiment, as I don't know who is going to get this card yet! (Hope this is OK.)
I really enjoyed putting this card together and the stamp was a joy to colour.
Hope you're all having a good week!
