Siren of Wonder at The Paper Shelter

Hello Crafty Peeps,

How is MerMay almost over already!? I haven't managed a lot at all this time around because I've been rather busy this month.

I have one last mermaid project as Design Team Inspiration for The Paper Shelter though. so I'm glad of having three this month. Our theme this week is Fantasy or Fairytale, so you can interpret that as you wish if you are not a fan of mermaids!

I went for another colouring page, this time from 'Siren Dreams' (Pg32), and made an easel stepper card.

This image is greyscale which I really like for this project. as it looks like one of those old-fashioned photos that has been hand-coloured.

I photographed the sparkles under fluourescent light, as they show much better than when using daylight.

A close-up of the bubble beads. They are tiny, so you can't really see them in the main picture.

I usually have my die-cuts a single colour, so I thought I would change it up this time. Some of the paper lifted, so I had to glue it back down, but I like how it came out.

Thank you for stopping by today. Your kind comments are always appreciated.

Please come and join in our challenge this week and remember, you can use any image but if you use a Paper Shelter image you are eligible for a higher value prize!

You can also share your creations over in our Facebook Group.
