Mermaid to be Awesome

Another card featuring The Greeting Farm's Little Mermaids stamped and colored with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers and fussy cut out for creating a scene.  The frame was cut with Simon Says Stamp's This is the Life die and then inlaid with the similarly cut Distress Oxide background.

I've had a ton of fun with these images and now have a few cards for the stash.

I'm entering this card into Simon Says Stamp's Monday challenge Life on the Ocean Waves. 

A Pop-up Under The Sea Birthday Card

Brandy used some patterned paper (that background paper is delightfully colorful, don't you think?!) and a few die cuts to create this lovely pop-up Birthday card.  The ink blending on the die cuts and the tag are just the right touch with the silhouette images and when coupled with the Spelbinders June 2019 Large Die of the Month, create a stunning card.

I think one of the things I like most is the shiny, varigated look of that background paper and the sentiment - it really looks like a seashell.

I'm linking this card up to Simon Says Stamp's Monday challenge Life on the Ocean Waves.

Waving Hello From the Mermaids

I had some additional colored images of the mermaids  and wanted to put them together.  I colored the images with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers and fussy cut the images out.  The frame was cut with Simon Says Stamp's This is the Life die and then inlaid with the similarly cut Distress Oxide background.

So pleased with how this card turned out.

Handpainted Watercolor Notecard

Brandy sat down and painted this watercolor scene as an experiment and practice session.  It went so well she turned it into a notecard.  So special!

Sending Oceans of Love

It's summer and I couldn't resist the urge to get out my Distress Oxides and make a few ocean inspired backgrounds.  Of course, the best match to an ocean background is a mermaid with a few of her fishy friends.

The images were stamped onto Bristol cardstock using my Greeting Farm Little Mermaids stamp set and colored with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers.  I don't have the dies so I fussy cut each of the images out.

I'm not sure whether I like the first or the second card better.  The Ariel inspired mermaid can't help but be a favorite, but the sweet purple haired mermaid is adorable.

Both cards were fun to make and so I'm entering these into Simon Says Stamp's Monday challenge Life on the Ocean Waves.
