Today sees the start of a new challenge on The Sweet Pea Stampers and it's all about fantasy ... mermaids, fairies etc. Please click on the link and see the wonderful crafting of the rest of the team and, hopefully, join in with your own fantasy creations - we'd love to see you there.
For my design team card I used Elaine Cox's Little Jasmine mermaid digi, colouring with spectrum noirs I tore the edges and brushed with brushed concord distress ink. The background paper is from Basic Grey urban prairie, stamped randomly with a Dawn Bibby Personal Impressions swirls stamp inked with vibrant violet stazon. I used the same ink and stamp for the lilac panel, this paper taken from the Basic Grey Lilykate pad., tearing and brushing with peacock feathers distress ink. Ribbons are from stash, sentiment is from Craftwork cards and the flowers are Prima.
Colours were inspired by Oozak 20: anything goes/sea colours photo inspiration, concentrating on purple and aqua:

Hazel this is gorgeous. Love those colors. That little mermaid is adorable. Thank you so much for playing along with us at OPUS GLUEI.
ReplyDeleteThe inspiration for this is so pretty and your card is lovely. Like how you drew from a concentrated palette and it makes your mermaid pop amongst the pretty embellishments. Lots of color, lots of shimmer, I love that!
