Happy Mother's Day weekend!
The other day I showed you one of my
MerMae colourings in progress and today I'm sharing the finished colouring and the magical project I made with it featuring my new designs, MerMae and 2 of the Ocean Scenery elements, plus, how to get more poses and scenes out of one image😀
The
Mermaid Collection is available as a bundle and individually!

It's so much fun to break up an image and use it in unexpected ways like I did here with MerMae. By making it look like her tail is curved up I've given her a different pose and the enchanting scene looks like we've caught a glimpse of her swimming by!
Here's the finished colouring done with Prismacolor pencils before I added white gel pen details and glitter accents. I had a fabulous time colouring this double page spread.
I made a 3D storybook card for my Mom for Mother's Day using the Storybook die set by Crafter's Companion. I had so much fun making it💜
The finished Storybook stood on the awesome easel that comes in the die set.
I really needed the new Nautical collection by Crafter's Companion for my project but it's still on its way to my eager hands so had to get creative in the meanwhile and pulled elements from various other stamp and die sets in my Crafter's Companion stash:
Shell, Starfish and Leaf elements - Birdhouse Create-a-Card stamps/dies accessories pack
Border greenery and Dandelions - Enchanted Garden and Wisteria Window Dimensional Create-a-Card dies
Dream die cut sentiment - Subscription Box #6 Aqua Markers Kit
I love You sentiment - Crafter's Companion Advent Calendar
To capture how truly enchanting this project is in real life with all the magical shimmer was a challenge so here's lots of photos from different angles in different lighting!
Spectrum Noir clear Sparkle pen, Crystal Stickles glitter glue and 3D Viva Pearl blue magic transparent.
Here's a look at the gorgeous easel die cut from CC's Centura Metallic Precious Metals cardstock which I also used for the base of the storybook. The next page is a gorgeous aquamarine/teal pearlescent cardstock. I used double sided adhesive foam tape to add dimension to the book pages.
I love how it turned out and I hope I've inspired you to create your own magical Mermaid scenes!

MerMae is a beautiful realistically drawn fantasy mermaid with flowing hair framing her lovely face and a magical tail with gorgeous fins.
MerWitch is gorgeous creature with a darker edgy vibe. She's very haute couture in her stylish Witch hat embellished with seaweed, exoskeleton torso and spiderweb fins. She will be perfect for your Halloween projects especially for my upcoming annual Half-o-Ween in May blog hop😉
The
Ocean Scenery set completes the Mermaid Collection!
With the Bubbles, Tall Greenery and Leafy Greenery you can create fabulous underwater scenes for MerMae and MerWitch. You can even use the greenery for land scenes too, the possibilities are endless!
See you soon for my upcoming annual Half-O-Ween - Halloween in May blog hop, details announced next week😉
Thanks for stopping by to see today's featured project!
Happy Creating!
