You look flippin' fabulous!

Hi there,

I just love the Alex Syberia Designs Underwater Wonders stamp set and I created this little scene for Mennys Bastelshop:

  • stamp a penguin mermaid and two fish from the Alex Syberia Designs Underwater Wonders set with Gina K. Designs Obsidian
  • color the image with Spectrum Noir Triblend Markers, add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and extra sparkle with Wink of Stella Clear Glitter
  • create a background using Distress Ink (Salty Ocean, Prize Ribbon, Chipped Sapphire, Peacock Feathers), colored cardstock, foiled cardstock, circle dies, some plant dies and a wave stencil
  • stamp the sentiment from the same set with Versamark onto a strip of dark blue cardstock and heat-emboss it with WOW! Bright White Super Fine embossing powder
I hope you got inspired.

Hugs,

Ho, Ho, Ho

Hi there,

I created this fun little scene using the Anjas Basteltraum Weihnachtsmänner stamp set:

  • create a scene using stamps from the Anjas Basteltraum Weihnachtsmänner set and  Gina K. Designs Obsidian - use the masking technique

  • cut out a mat using the Sunny Studio Stamps Mini Mat & Tag 3 from gold foiled cardstock
  • run kraft cardstock through your Big Shot in a woodgrain embossing folder and ink up the edges of that panel with Distress Ink Gathered Twigs
