Mermaids & Pearls

The Stampendous DT is hopping this week showing off the fun Wee Scapes products along with our Stampendous stamps.

I decided to create a seascape using a giant shell:

The shell received a coat of Adirondack Pearl Paint and touches of metallic distress stains.  I created my pearl from STAETDLER Fimo Clay.  I gave it a coat of metallic stains as well.  I created a sea bed by smearing tacky glue along the bottom and sprinkled Wee Scapes Foliage Cluster along the bottom. I also glued the grass into the background to give the effect of sea weed.  The mermaid was stamped using Memento and colored with Copics. The shells were heat embossed and coated with Aged Gold Embossing Enamel. I stamped several seahorses which were colored and sprinkled with gold glitter. The whole desk was covered in glitter when I was finished. :)

Products; Stampendous Mermaid , Wee Scapes grass, green foliage cluster, Stampendous Glitter, Aged Gold Embossing Enamel,  Copics, Memento Black Ink

Swimming with Mermaids

The Stampendous and May Arts Blog Hop Finale is today. The Stampendous DT has been playing with the wonderful May Arts Ribbon all week. 

My inspiration started from the ultra fun loose-braid wired ribbon from May Arts.

The ribbon is perfect sea weed that my mermaid and sea horse can play hide and seek in.

The background is sprayed with Glimmer Mist (Patina).  After it completely dried I stamped the Stampendous Geo Bubbles using Versamark and heat embossed with white embossing powder.

I glimmer misted some crepe paper to create the background seaweed.   I added a beautiful sea floor using the Steel Blue Glass Glitter.  The Mermaid and Sea Horse were stamped on white cardstock and colored with my Copics.  I added a hint of glitter in the scales on the mermaid.

Hop along to find all kinds of wonderful inspiration! Don't forget to leave a little love along the way for a chance to win a fabulous prize!
