Anyway, here it is, using one of the new images from Morgan's Etsy shop here. The digi is called Mystical Mermaid Selkie with Seal. I can hardly wait to colour the other images and make more cards but that all depends on how my eyes behave over the next few weeks. I'd had five days in a row when they were fine and I was so sure that I'd conquered the problem but then........... yesterday happened and this morning.
I used my Promarkers to colour her and then gave an overall spray of iridescent Spray and Sparkle from Crafter's Companion. I coloured directly on to the large card blank, from Joanna Sheen, with my Promarker and then sprayed that too so that it looks almost sparkly like the sea. A scrap of sandpaper became the floor with some scattered shells from Beachcomber. A small Crafty Bitz mermaid was set on a Spellbinders die cut at the top of the card. Then I coloured some bits of raffia, it's supposed to look like seaweed but I'm not sure that that succeeded! lol The raffia is from Hobbycraft
I'm entering my card into the following challenges:
Crafty Sentiments Challenge - Animals
Fan-Tastic Tuesday Challenge - Anything Goes
Through the Craft Room Door - Anything Goes
Try it on Tuesday - Use your Stash - the raffia, I've had for years and the shells, well, I keep using them but they will last forever!

ReplyDeleteGood afternoon Hazel, sorry to hear your having problems with your eyes. Hope they will improve over the next few days and you can continue to create your stunning cards.
ReplyDeleteI do pop in to see what you have been doing. I have not been doing much while the boys were off school. John and I were away a lot with John, Audrey and the boys. We have had great fun if very tired when we got home in the evenings. However after a good sleep we were up and ready to start another day.
Hugs
