Hey there, hope all is well with you.
I couldn't remember the last time I played at the ATC challenge, so I figured it was time. The theme is Mermaids and I had a Gecko Galz mermaid paper doll already printed out and fussy cut. I found her in my Water bits and bobs box, along with backing paper from GG's Beach Life ATC set and the tiny shell and round sequins and fish brads. I found the little pink pearl beads in my bead box.
I layered the GG ATC paper onto a trimmed down scrap of kraft card and used a pink glitter marker to color around it. Then with a needle and pink thread, I attached the shells and pearls at the corners, stitching them down. I colored the mermaid with Promarkers and added some pink glitter marker to her buttons. I popped her on using dimensional tape strips. Then I added the fish brads and the round sequins and done!
I chose not to add any words since the paper already has the word "SEA" at the top and the bottom.
😊
Thanks for visiting me today and enjoy your weekend!
