Hugs & Salty Kisses

Mermaids kisses are the best...slightly salty and full of bliss!

Hi everyone!  I'm so glad that you could join me again today.  Today I have a Facebook Live going in the the Stampers Delights Fan Group.  I will be going over how I created the background for this image.  Head on over if you have a chance.  Click on the button below.

Bring The Color!

For this particular card I decided to make a full color scene card.  I didn't use very much in the way of dies.  I used a Wonky Stitched rectangle to die cut my A2 so that it has some details from the stitching. 

Next I colored in my image.  I wanted make the mermaid tale stand out by using two complementary colors.  In this case violet and yellow.  The transition between colors was perfect.

With all the coloring completed, I used double sided foam to the back of my image and adhered it to my A2 card base.

Finally I used a banner die to cut out my sentiment and used some foam dots to adhere it on the right side of my card.  

This was a very minimal material use card, but full of detail and color.  Here is the final product.
