A Mermaid Birthday Card!
Hello everyone! We are loving this spring weather here in Idaho! We are in full force planting our raised beds and garden, doing warm weather projects and of course sneaking in some crafting where we can! Thank you for stopping by, we are so glad you did!
This card was so much fun to make! I love this mermaid stamp set from Trinity Stamps. I created the background with some white and blue watercolor paints, but first embossed with some white and clear embossing powders of the same stamped image. And, of course, I had to use some shiny scale-like paper and pearl embellishments to add to the Mermaid theme! I really loved how it turned out! I am joining a few fun challenges, links below!

Oh my, Sabra, your personalized stamped background using various inks, embossing and splatter of color make a great reflection of water with other mermaids in the deep sea. Very creative and beautifully done. Thanks for sharing your beautiful and adorable card with us at Double Trouble's 8th Anniversary Raffle.
