Trying something new!

Here is a super fun card I made featuring Faery Ink Tottie Mermaid Princess Stamp

I wanted to make an underwater card so I thought I would try something totally different and paint my background instead of coloring it. I have never done an underwater painting , but I think it's important to push your self to try new things. I found a great video on YouTube by MuralJoe. I played it several times (paused and rewound it even more), and after 3 tries I came up with something I was happy with. I think I am even going to try it again!

 

 

I used:

Faery Ink Tottie Mermaid Princess Stamp

Copic Markers

Dylusion Acrylic Paints

My Favorite Things Bokeh Stamp

Card Fun

For those who regularly check my blog, I would like to share why I have been absent. I recently had some health issues that required me to pull back and do less. This meant taking a small break from crafting...BOOOOOO....right? But I am slowly making my way back! Here are some fun cards that I hope inspire you to make some of your own! I can't wait to get back into sharing with you all ; )

 

Here's a card making my own patterned paper!

No line coloring to create a cartoon look!

And finally colored pencil on craft paper to create a colorful patterned paper!

Have a crafty weekend and check back soon for more crafting fun!
