Mermaid Card




I made this card using Michelle Perkett's mermaid called 'Just Breath'. I got her from my Special 50/50's group. I colored her using atyou glitter marker in blossom, fiskars gel pen for the rest and light green copic marker for the leaves and blue dot. The challenge over at Michelle Perkett is to use lace and pearls and a color combo. I based the color combo on the Bobunny dp. The scallop edges were created using my Fiskars circle cutter. The circle measures about 1 inch and I cut that in half to create the edge because sadly enough, I don't have a scalloped circle die. :(
I used pearls for the flowers center and added a lace bow.
I can't say how much I love her. I don't think I will be giving her away. She is just so lovely to look at.




I'm entering her for:


Michelle Perkett 'color combo and special' challenge.


Polly Crafts 'Anything Goes' challenge 38



Stampavie and more 'Use some green on your card' The green is the little leaves on the flowers








Supplies:
Stamp: Digi from Michelle Perkett
Paper: BoBunny, GP, MS cs
Medium: Atyou 'blossom' marker, Fiskars gel pens, copic markers
Misc: lace ribbon, recollections pearls
