Update from 31/05/2013 - This card was selected in TOP3 at Simply Create Too.
Hello ladies!
How are you today and how is your creative spirit?
As you have probably noticed, I love cards with a lot of folds, pockets, layers and tags. I was so glad to find a lovely post here on making just this kind of card. The post inspired me to start a new card project, which I'll share with you today.
I chose to color a Wee digi stamp - Shelley. You can find here at the bottom of the page here.
The Copic colors I've used are as follows:
Skin: E0000, E00, E21, E11, R20
Hair: E79, E29, E27, E25, E23
Mermaid: BG49, BG45, BG34, BG32
Stone: C4, C3, C1, C0
Turtle: E99, E97, E95; G16, G14, G12; BG07, 0; T2
It was a 'must' to use tiny shells on a card with the mermaid image, as well as lots of pearls, glitter and sparkles.
A look from above at all the folds:
Some close-ups:
The shells I used are by KnorrPrandell (white & brown).

1. Anything Goes @ Whimsey Inspires
