Vera Lane Studio - New Release Fun with The Mermaid

Hello, my friends!

I'm back today with another Guest post for Vera Lane Studios!

I've been a long time fan of these wonderful digi images,

so I'm really thrilled to be sharing weekly posts for the month of June.

This week I'm sharing a project using the New Release Image Set:
The Mermaid

I created a little piece to hang on the wall.

I was very happy that Janet had the option to add the top to the mermaid,

for those of us that are more modest! ;o)

Here's what I made:

I sized the images, printed them, and cut them with my Cricut Explore Air.

I colored them with Spectrum Noir markers. 

I created the background with distress inks on Bristol paper.

Big water drops were added, along with a few splashes.

I then mounted that onto cardstock that had been adhered to chipboard. 

Then I put my scene together.

I used foam tape on some pieces, and curled up other bits,

to add dimension.

I added Stickles for some sparkle,

and some Perfect Pearls for the pearl in her hand.

Then I added sequins for some more sparkle.

Then I found this ribbon in my stash. 

It seemed rather seaweedish to me.

I braided it together and added a strip to the top and the bottom.

Other Materials Used:

Papers: Bristol Paper, Recollections - Cardstock;

Color: Spectrum Noir Markers;

Distress Inks: Salty Ocean, Evergreen Bough, Peacock Feathers;

Stickles: Star Dust;

Perfect Pearls: White Pearls;

Dies: Spellbinders Shapeabilities - Nautical Frame and Accents;

Sequins: Dollarama.
