Under the Sea

Last month I managed to link up to the challenge at Imagine That Digi Stamps challenge and was given Baby Mermaid for doing so with the challenge to use it, which almost a month ago seemed a good idea! Anyway I have at last managed to get it on a card just in time for this month's challenge!

Materials used:   
Imagine That Digistamp - Baby Mermaid set
acrylic seaweed stamp from Creative Stamping magazine
Adirondak green ink pad
X-Press It card
printer paper
Copic pens


Print out the mermaid image on X-Press It card and two of the papers and greeting from the set on printer paper. I chose the sandy coloured one and the blue one to give the effect of sand and water.

Colour the mermaid with Copic pens and fussy cut it out. Use the two papers to cover the front of an A5 card blank then stamp the seaweed on it with green ink.

Trim the sentiment and edge it with a black pen then stick it to the card front. Attach the mermaid using gel glue (or foam pads) so it is slightly raised.
Having been on holiday and with quite a few family events this month everything is a bit last minute. Still better late than never I guess.

Thanks for dropping in. Take care.

  4. The background papers you used make for a great underwater scene. The addition of the seaweed stamp adds a lot of depth as well.
