Hi there, wow what a beautiful day we've had, perfect temperature and a lovely breeze:) if only this would continue for the next 3 months!
I'm in plenty of time this fortnight for the Craft Barns's Q&L challenge where the words are MOUNTAIN and MISTAKE. Lots of choice for lyrics with mountain in them but I've gone for a song by Savage Garden that I hear a lot in the car, come and see:

I created the background in Craft Artist and cut out the mermaid, added some glitter to her tail and popped her up with pinflair. I inked the edges and used a swirly stamp to over stamp for more depth. I stapled the ribbon on for a change:)
If you aren't familiar with the song you can check it out here.
Hope you all have a good weekend with some sunshine!
your tags, just like the dictionary pages, are so amazing, val!! the tag today is very cool!! (and we seem to be having the same weather... beautiful and sunny with a nice breeze! and yes..i wish it would be that way for the next three months, too, lol!!
ReplyDeleteGreat tag Val......you've definitely got the deeply with the mermaid; only truly and madly to go! Very strange weather today - started off very chilly with a strong breeze, turned warmer as the day went on but wind definitely progressing - forecast to have a mother of a storm tomorrow, have to wait and see.

What a beautiful tag. Your mermaid is so pretty and the background is lovely. The over stamping is very clever. I wish I remembered tips like that, but I never do, haha. I also like the idea of stapling the ribbon 'for a change'; quick and easy ;)
