Ebony Sea kissed mermaid

-
I got to play with the fabulous Ebony Sea kissed digi from Lacy Sunshine.  She's just stunning.

For this project I decided to make something a bit different.  I made a tag.  I used all kinds of different inks and sprays to make my own background and then I used an ink refresher on it.  It makes the tag feel almost like fabric... Hard to describe here...


I added some ribbon from my stash.  Some die cuts from the rose creation by Spellbinder.  I used different Robin's nest dew drops for the bubbles in the sea.  I wanted to do a under the sea type of scene... Think I succeeded!

Here's a closer look at the digi colored with my copics.  I used a sentiment from Create with TLC with her because I thought she did look a bit grouchy... and she is a darker mermaid with some spiderweb on her tail!
Isn't she just stunning?!?

I'm entering this tag in the following challenges:

  1. Bloggers-challenge - Background
  2. Kittybee designs - Water
  3. Left of center challenges - LOC or no designer paper - used the no designer paper for this
  4. Crafters cafe blog challenge - no designer paper
  5. Crafting by designs - Anything goes
  6. Inky impressions challenges - Water
  7. Paper pretties blog - distress - did the distressing for the background
That's my 1st post of the day...  and it's going to be one with lots of posts!  So I really hope that you will be back for the others.


I'm having a giveaway to celebrate the fact that I have reached 400 followers!!! WOW so if you want to enter it's here: http://crafting-vicky.blogspot.ca/2013/09/400-followers-giveaway.html
