The heat has been on for 3 days now, which is unheard of for late May around here! Crazy. I am thankful that I don't put all of my long pants & hoodies away because I have really needed them! I want to be like this little cutie below, basking in the sunshine... I'm entering this one into the following challenges:
Stamping Bella - Mermay 2025 - Mixed Media Mermaids
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday - Bright Cheerful
Passion for Markers - Anything Goes
Wednesday's Creative Inspiration - The Great Outdoors
Paper Funday - Anything Goes/Optional Something New (my mermaid stamp is new)
I just adore this card if I do say so myself! LOL I had fun making the background with Distress Oxide Inks blended on watercolor paper. I splattered some darker brown ink around the bottom. I printed a rock/starfish out, stamped Whimsabella Mermaid Serene Seastar with Versafine Black and embossed with clear embossing powder. I colored it all with Copics and added some glitter, fussy cut and attached to background. I used some seaweed and a seashell die cut to finish it off. I drew the clouds with a clear embossing pen and then filled them in with fluffy stuff. Peace.
Isn't the weather nuts? You're freezing and we're boiling! On another note, your card is precious, Thanks for playing along at The Paper Funday Challenge.
