I have been sunning myself by the pool this afternoon and now am back at the Compy to upload some stuff and do more work :-)
I have made this ATC for the "Under Water" Challenge #89 over at FUN WITH ATCs.
On the backing I smeared some yellow acrylic and blue ink onto bubblewrap and then squished it onto my basecard :-) Whilst the paint was still wet I used a poky tool to make wavy fish scale like lines on it that I later highlighted with Stickles. They look sort of like scales now :-)
The main image in one of mine 'MERMAID' that I have coloured up and she is available from my Shop HERE. I've only used the top half of her - she is actually a full length image sitting on a rock :-) The little shells are some that I painstakingly picked off a small box I bought on a gift stall. Metal skully from stash :-)
Back again Later xxx
