Hi friends. I am super excited to be sharing a couple of projects with you today featuring goodies from the brand new release that just hit the Whimsy Stamps store today.
There are so many great products in this release. For today's cards, I will be using the super fun Curly Qs background, the Mini Bubbles background and then the Mermaid Dreams stamp set. I will also be adding in a couple of older projects.
I then took some various shades of blue inks and blended them over my stamped background, concentrating the darker colors at the bottom. I then flicked on some water with my spray bottle to add additional droplets and texture.
I then stamped the adorable mermaid tail from the Mermaid Dreams set 3 times with alcohol friendly black ink. I added color to each of the tails by blending on some Distress inks.
I thought the sentiment from the Create Magic stamp set was perfect to go with these fun images. I finished off the card by matting my focal panel on some black card stock to tie in the black outline of the images and stamping. I then added in a few drops of Nuvo Crystal drops.
You can't really tell in the photos but each of my mermaid tails got a healthy dose of Clear Wink of Stella to make them nice and sparkly.
For my second card today, I started by stamping the amazing Curly Qs background onto a piece of white card stock. I then took several Distress ink colors in rainbow order to add color to my background.
I stamped the same mermaid tail from Mermaid Dreams and added in a couple colors of ink.
I die cut one of the dies from the Notched Rectangles set and stamped the same sentiment as above onto it. I added my mermaid tail with a bit of foam tape and then finished off the cards by adding in some sparkly silver gems.
Thank you for stopping by today. I will be back tomorrow with a couple more cards using some of the new release. Crafty hugs!
