We Mermaid For Each Other Card

Hi everyone! I have a card to share with you today that was inspired by the Day 7 class for the Spring Card Camp 2 class by Online Card Classes. The lesson was about vellum overlays, so I used pearlescent vellum to create this underwater scene.

I started by ink blending the background with distress oxide inks. I used Cracked Pistachio, Mermaid Lagoon, and Blueprint Sketch inks. Then, I lightly ink blended a piece of white cardstock with green and yellow inks, and die cut it with the Bayou Backdrop die to create the first layer of seaweed. Then, I used that die to cut a piece of the pearlescent vellum, flipped it over so that the back side was facing up, and attached it to the other seaweed piece. I flipped it over so that the seaweed looked staggered at the bottom. I used double sided tape and attached the seaweed to the bottom of the ink blended background.

Then, I stamped and colored images from Mermaid For You and Fintastic Friends and attached them to the scene with foam tape and glue. I stamped the sentiment along the top in black ink and finished by adding a few hearts stamped in Wild Rose ink. Here's a closer look at the card to show you how neat the seaweed looks with the vellum layer on top:

Thanks so much for visiting and I hope you all have a great day! :)
