Hello there! It's the 8th of the month, and that means it's time for another Reverse Confetti blog hop! This month, the theme is anything goes, so I pulled out an old Reverse Confetti favorite of mine, Mermaid Kisses. How cute is she?!
I love lots of white background to let the colored images pop. I've been playing more with my colored pencils lately too, in hopes of getting better with them.
To create my card, I started off with a white A2 card base. On top of that, layered a Diagonal Stitches Cover Panel and on top of that, the frame from the Greetings Frame Confetti Cuts die set, all cut from white cardstock. Then, I stamped several images from the Mermaid Kisses stamp set, and colored them with my Prismacolor pencils before diecutting them with the coordinating Mermaid Kisses Confetti Cuts dies.
For my sentiment, I stamped a sentiment from the Mermaid Kisses stamp set onto a strip of white cardstock and popped it up on an angle following the stitched lines of the panel underneath. It's a fun and different placement. I arranged my scene, and popped some pieces up with foam tape and adhered others with a glue pen. Then, I added white gel pen accents and black glaze pen to the eyes of the mermaid and critters. Finally, I added some bubbles using Nuvo Drops.
That's all for me today, but be sure to hop around and comment for your chance to win a Reverse Confetti gift certificate!
