I started with die cutting bristol paper using Simon Says Stamp Wonky Stitched Rectangle die. Then I stamped the images from the Mermazing stamp set using versmark ink and white heat embossed the images. The banner sentiment I white heat embossed on a scrap piece Bristol paper. I coloured everything using Distress Oxide inks. Reason being they were on the table ready to go. I was too lazy to find another medium to be honest. But the distress oxide inks worked well. I spattered clear water and white paint to add texture.

To get depth to the colouring, I used Prisma colour pencils in darker shades. I also added shimmer on the mermaid and fishes using Wink of Stella clear shimmer pen. I adhered the panel on a white card base. I adhered the banner sentiment below the white heat embossed sentiment using foam adhesives. I used the sparkly white enamel dots from Your Next Stamp to add water droplets. The card turned out to be colourful and cute, don’t you think?
