LO's I did for Michelle's National Scrapbook Month on the Fiskateer's web site.
These were fun to do! The fairy one was just cutting and stickers and stickles and Souffle pen.
The one with the frame was an adventure in flocking, recycled a bit of Prima packaging and a ribbon I got on something. Stickled some Heidi Grace letters to match the page and used a felt lace from Prima and a sparkly lace leaf from another company, too.
These are the cards I got in the recent Fiskateer Mermaid ATC swap. I'd asked to get one of mine back. It's a very nice assortment and I like the fact that I was challenged in this one.

Mermaid ATC's


Posted by PicasaThese are not quite as I imagined. I had to rush so the glue was a bit thick and the sequins got caught in some. Process started with my mermaid drawing. Colored it and scanned image into computer. I then printed it out x 8 on glossy photo paper and cut out the mermaids. Pasted them on metallic cardstock ATC size (2.5 x 3.5) then added a pearl to navels. Mod podged x 2. Spayed some moss with bronze and turquoise glimmer mist and applied it to the lower right corners. Added sequins of 2 fish and a seahorse. Cut out green foam core board to a frame and glued it to a tansparency and then to ATC. Last glued turquoise velvet rik-rak to sides of card.
