The Details of My Mermazing Day Card

For my card, I decided to go out of my comfort zone and colour with my Copic markers Rosealea in oranges. I don’t usually use orange in my colouring. But since there was a lot going on in the background, I thought it would make her pop from my shaker card and match the orange fish in the background DSP.

The Waves Die by Spellbinders was a new purchase, and it went perfectly with my mermaid theme! Since the die took up the whole card front with lots of peek through holes, I decided to create a shaker card.

To create my focal point, I added behind Rosealea gold foil coral and some vellum seaweed. Rosealea and the seaweed helped lead your eye up to the sentiment.

Next, I adhered a scattering of gold shell sequins from the Sea Sequins to the front of my card, along with some blue sequins from the Stardust Sequins to tie in my colour scheme.

Finally, to add some sparkle, I used Clear Wink of Stella on her tail and Glossy Accents on the pearls in her hair.

The Details of My Shellabrate Birthday Card

For my card, I decided to use the Mermaid Tales Collection Kit by Echo Park since it was perfect for my Mermaid theme! The Kit came with paper and stickers. So, I used the “Sparkle & Shine” sticker as well as the paper on my card. The Shellabrate flag was from the Mermaid Dreams Frames & Tags also by Echo Park.

Once I picked my papers, I used the colours from it to colour Ellie with my Copic markers. I used Clear Wink of Stella on her tail and on the fins of the seahorse to add some sparkle just like the sticker said!

Next, I added an angel fish die cut to match the fish in the paper, as well as a shell and seaweed beside the sticker to help ground her.

Finally, for embellishments, I added three dew drops that look like air bubbles to mirror the air bubble paper. I also added a black rhinestone for the fish’s eye.
