Yay! The June MFT Release is now live and it is full of amazing products!
Today I have an ocean themed card, featuring the Mermaid for Each Other stamp set.
I was totally inspired by a card and a You Tube tutorial (click here for the link) I've seen from Kristina Werner (@starofmay) channel: she did an amazing ocean background and I thought I would have given a try.
I took a piece of watercoloring paper and I did some wet on wet technique: i firstly put some water on the whole panel, which I fixed to a wooden board, then I added some Distress Reinkers in Stormy Sky and Chipped Sapphire. I did everything in a few seconds, then I let everything dry all the night.
Meanwhile, I stamped and colored the mermaids with the Copics listed below and I decided to fussy cut them, because I didn't want the white border around the image. I also took a black felt-tip-pen and I inked the white edges from cutting the paper.
When the background was ready, i trimmed it down to 3,75"x5" and I white heat embossed the sentiment at the bottom right corner, then I attached the two mermaids and I matted the whole scene with an A2 Smooth White panel. And here's the finished result!
Thanks for stopping by, I really hope you will like it. Be sure to check out the MFT blog to see all the other product previews and for even more ideas and inspiration, please visit the My Favorite Things YouTube channel.
