Sweet November Stamps is one of my favorite companies - the owner Amy is the most amazing colorist, and I often feel like I don't do her images justice! I decided to spend a LOT more time than usual coloring this image below, and I was thrilled with the results. I can't promise I'll do this for every card I make but it was really therapeutic just coloring, not worrying about the finished product. Once it was colored, I decided to make a background that looked like the sea, so I used alcohol inks on Yupo paper - I was really happy with the results. I especially love the way her tail came out! LOL
I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:
Dream Valley #337 - Hand Coloured Image
Wednesday's Creative Inspiration - The Great Outdoors
AllSorts #824 - Anything Goes (16th Birthday Celebration!)
Crafty Gals Corner #267 - Fancy ________ (Fancy Mermaid!)
The mermaid digi is called Skipper, and the background was a freebie for participating in the weekly Mermay challenges. I colored with Copics (my stash is building up nicely) and fussy cut very carefully before attaching with foam dimensional tape to the alcohol-ink Yupo background. Peace.
what a fun scene you've created for our challenge of Sea Life with Dragonfly. Thank you!
