Happy New Week, everyone.
Hope all is well with you.
Last week I shared a mermaid tag I'd made that was supposed to be part of an assortment. I finally made time to finish the rest of them. To me at least they all turned out to be mildly humorous, which never hurts a thing.
😁
For this tag, I fussy-cut the mermaid from a page in an old planner and adhered it to the background that I stenciled with Distress Inks and an ArtistCellar wave stencil. I also applied embossing ink to the bottom half and heat-embossed a sandy ocean floor using sand embossing powder. The seaweed, shell and seahorse are all Whimsy die cuts I colored with Smooch Inks. I stamped the Sheena Douglass sentiment with Versamark and heat-embossed it with white powder. I did a little gel-penning and adhered 3 blue glitter dots. This makes me smile.
😁
For this tag, I used another planner page adhered to card stock and cut into a shipping tag shape (but I rounded the top corners). Then I added a Tiddly Inks digital mermaid stamp I'd colored a while back and was in my stash waiting to be used. I stamped the Stampendous sentiment and heat-embossed it, then cut it down to add to the tag. I put 3 orange enamel dots around it. I used a white gel pen and Nuvo clear Crystal Glaze, then distressed the tag edge all around with some Chipped Sapphire DI and a blending tool. This one also makes me smile. I am imagining Neptune telling this little mermaid to make waves and the octopus has this "Ruh-roh, Trouble" look in his eyes, lol.
😁
For this tag, I used a printed and fussy-cut Gecko Galz digital collage sheet image and popped up with foam tape on a round coaster stenciled with Distress Inks and an ArtistCellar stencil. I added nautical die cut elements (Amazon netting die, Art Impressions ship's wheel and anchor dies) that I colored with inks and paint. I also added 3 blue glitter dots and edged the coaster with blue metallic paints. I'm smiling at this one because of her clearly mischievous look, what does she have cooked up her tail?
😁
Thanks for visiting and have a great day!

CHALLENGE LINK-UPS:
I love the water and coastal venues, the sandy beach not so much. So I've made some tags with that theme, and if I could be a mermaid, I'd try it!
The water and beach ball colors inspired me.

Oh - I saw your comment on my blog from beginning of May as I was looking for Jamie´s pan pizza (did you try it, did you like it?) - I totally missed it and hence also joining you...
I love Mermaids and maybe will see some in Perth "for real" again (there are three women who really dress(ed) up and went to the beach/venues (last time I visited pre-COVID in 2019...).
Love yours! xox

OK let's try this again. My last comment wouldn't post-grrrr. I am loving these tags Aimeslee. I'm with you when it comes to mermaids. It's hard to pick a favorite, but I do like the expression on the mermaid in the square tag. She looks surprised by something. Hope it cools off soon. Hugs-Erika
