Welcome to the June 2017 Pals Blog Hop. Thank you so much for joining us today. This month’s theme, Pick a “B”, features projects inspired by Babies, Birthdays and Brides to name few. You may just get a glimpse of new catalog products while you hop with us today.
Whether you’re just starting the hop, or have come from a previous Pal’s blog, you’ll find the line-up toward the end of my post to help you move along.
I had a lot of fun playing with the Magical Mermaid stamp set. It colors beautifully whether you are watercoloring, using colored pencils or whatever you may choose. First off, this is stamped on the Shimmery White cardstock which adds that little extra sparkle. I chose to clear emboss the tail, watercolor it and then give it a fussy cut to make it pop a little. I sponged various colors onto the background for an underwater look. I then went over it with the aqua painter. After it had dried I went back over the under water bubbles with Wink of Stella clear brush. Without further ado, here is my Magical Mermaid birthday card.
