Hi everyone and happy happy Wednesday!!!
I hope your weather is nice, the weather is my area is a scorcher today!
I was able to go for my morning walk before it got too hot though so I am thankful for that.
Today I wanted to share a card that I created for Mer-May!
May is almost over but better late than never ;)
I love this little cheeky mermaid from The Greeting Farm! I have had her in my stash for quite awhile, I think I purchased the stamp set when it came out in 2022? I don't remember exactly, I just know that I am so happy that I finally pulled her out and used it!
I stamped my images onto a piece of white Hammermill cardstock and colored them with my Copic markers. Once I had them colored in, I cut them out using my Scan N Cut and set them aside while I worked on my card front. I created an A2 top folding cardbase from white cardstock and doodled around the perimeter with a black micron pen. I stamped my sentiment onto a piece of patterned paper and used a wave die to cut it out. I cut out another wave and adhered them both to my card, making sure to stagger them just a bit. Since the card is more on the simple side, I really wanted to add as much dimension as I could so I placed my images onto the front with foam tape.
I decided to stamp the image again onto a piece of light orange patterned paper so that I could fussy cut the starfish in her hair and pop it up for even more dimension. I used really thin foam tape so while there is dimension, it isn't super bulky.
Copic Colors Used:
--Skin: E50, E51, E21, E04--
--Hair: E31, E33, E35, E37--
--Body: BG11, BG13, V12, V17--
--Hair Decor: YG01, YG03, YG05, RV11, RV13, RV14, V17--
