Birthday Fishes!


I wasn't sure where I was going to go with this mermaid image yesterday but I like where it ended up.  This card features coloring with Copics, airbrushing (image background), sponging the bubbles, embossing, using a branch die as seaweed.  Cutting the mylar with the die was a bit of a pain even with shims but worth it.  Glammest seaweed evah!

The Details:  Recollections 110lb cardstock base,  Hammermill Color Copy 80lb Photo White Cover Stock, TheDoodleGarden Drifting Dreamers, Sakura white pigment pen, Simon Says Stitched Rectangle die, Paper Studio Mini Bubbles embossing folder, Memory Box Grove Branch die, Elizabeth Crafts Shimmer Sheetz, Copics YG0000, YG01, YG03, YG11, YG13, YG17, 0, B0000, BG000, BG10, BG11, BG13, V000, V01, V04, V12, E0000, E00, E02, R20, E97, YR18, E19

I'm entering this in Seize the Birthday with Make Your Own Background Topping, The Paper Players PP243 Transportation, and Addicted to Stamps and More #142 Make Your Mark
