Hello friends! Welcome to the Be Inspired blog hop. You may have just arrived from the fabulous Brian King’s blog. Currently he and I are having a great time in Thailand on the Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip. I just adore this guy! Well, you’ve left the US and now you’re in the lovely Canada for a visit.
Our theme this week is ‘favourite technique’ and I had a hard time choosing just one – as you can probably see! For this card I basically did it all. I’ve included watercolouring, a glossy cardstock background, stencilling, and even a little embossing paste! Usually I would NEVER recommend combining all of these techniques, but somehow it just worked for this under the sea look.
The Magical Mermaid Stamp Set is so incredibly stunning. The mermaid image is so beautiful and I love how her hair looks like it’s actually floating in the ocean. I created her multicoloured tail with my Aqua Painter and the inks Lemon Lime Twist, Pool Party, Emerald Envy, and Bermuda Bay.
You’ll find a complete supply list of all the items I’ve used with clickable links to my Canadian Online Stampin’ Up! Shop at the end of this blog post.
You can also combine this with the Bonus Days offer from Stampin’ Up! For every $60 you spend (before shipping & tax) get a $6 coupon code to use in August. July is an AMAZING time to shop with me!
Full details on all the VIP treatment HERE.
Make sure you pop on over to the Netherlands next to visit Janneke de Jong.
Please note: Less than 1% of all demonstrators earn the Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip each year.
