Have a mermazing day!

Hey Crafty Friends,

The new year is quick approaching, some of you may already be celebrating at this point! I'm here to share a quick and easy card with the new Scrappy Boy Mermazing stamp set. This card would work for all types of occasions, I initially had birthday in mind however this would work for a new year card too!

Card Recipe:

1. Largest stitched rectangle die cut from ice blast card stock 

2. Ink panel with broken china into stormy sky at the top 

3. Layer on the fireworks stencil, use an embossing pen or pad to trace the pattern and add totally teal embossing powder. 

4. Take a breaking wave border die and cut a shorter panel from another stitched rectangle in ice blast card stock.

5. Ink the sea up with blueprint sketch, spritz water to reactivate ink and splatter a little blueprint sketch on top for texture.

6. Stamp desired images on alcohol marker friendly card stock and colour in medium of your choice

Copic colours:

Sea Witch - 

Skin: E33, E11 and E00

Hair: V09, V06 and V04

Hat and Tail - B39, B37 and B34

Shells: to match Hair and Crab 

Crab: YR09, YR07 and YR04

7. Stamp a sentiment and lay your card pieces in place. Stick down with glue or foam tape.

I hope this has inspired you today, ill be back soon with more card inspiration. Until next time, happy crafting!

Hey Crafty Friends, It's a new month so that means the start of a new challenge over on the Colour it, Create it, Show it off challenge blog, as always our challenge is anything goes, that's any image, any project. Why not grab you favourite set and join us  here. If you would like to treat yourself to a new image you can find all the MyBesties images  here. This will be a shorter post again today, it's a very simple card. I coloured the image in Spectrum Noir alcohol markers and fussy cut around her. Taking a card blank and used Kitsch flamingo distress ink to bring down some colour to about a quarter down the panel and fade out into the white to give a very soft look and feel.

This card was sent to a fellow crafter on Instagram in a birthday swap, it gave me joy to ha...

My idea for this came as soon as I saw the set 'Spread your wings' This beautiful swan has big regal wings that meant it deserved the opportunity to fly! To start up I took a scalloped slimline frame die and inked up a galaxy type background, now the thing to remember with creating a galaxy background is it might look like a hot mess to start with! A galaxy background can use any colours you feel are fitting, I'm using Wilted Violet, Mermaid Lagoon and Candied Apple. You can put some greens and pinks in too if you would like.  Take a blending tool, I'm using a blending brush and bring in random sections of colour using you...
