Today I have a birthday card with a mermaid theme for you. When I first saw this stamp set from My Favorite Things, I didn’t think I would need it as I don’t make many kids cards. But then my friend Soni made me a beautiful birthday card with it and I just had to have it. Ha ha on me!
This card actually is for a 5 year old. Hope she will like it. I attached the card to the gift bag in order to quickly decorate the plain bag.
The card details: I used pixie powders on water color card stock to create the water background. Love the way they shine! And next I cut out some coral and attached the colored mermaid, turtle and clown fish. I actually have a whole bunch of items colored from that set and now that I have a card design I like, I can recreate this card pretty easily.
Supplies used: Stamps, MFT and Apple Blossom
Cosmic Shimmer Pixie Powders: peacock green, emerald green, & aqua lagoon
Dies for the coral, Apple Blossom ( I fussy cut the mermaid, turtle and fish)
Embossing folder, SU
Stickles and Chameleon color tone pencils
Wishing you a “mermazing” day!

LOVE IT! Most especially the Pixie Powders background - this reminds me that I've not used mine in awhile so thanks for the inspiration to play with them again. All the elements work perfectly together and I love the idea of using a porthole window . . . great layout!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue! I hope you get to play with your pixie powders as they are so much fun. Have fun and I look forward to seeing your creations!
