Mer-May Inspiration with Randy

Hello crafty friends, DT Randy here back with another blog post. We are finally in May which means it’s time for some Mer-May inspiration! 

For my first card in Mer-May, I am featuring the Flounderin’ Around Meadow stamp set. 

I first stamped out my image and fussy cut it out. I then used Copic Markers to color the image. 

For my background, I took an A2 panel and blended it with Saltwater Taffy. I then took one of the stencils in the Rays of the Sun stencil set and blended it with Worn Lipstick. 

I took another A2 panel and die cut out two hill pieces using dies from my stash. 

With the more wavier piece, I blended it with Uncharted Mariner and Peacock Feathers Distress Oxides. 

For the second piece, I blended it with Antique Linen and Tea Dye Distress Oxides. I splattered all pieces with White Embossing Powder. 

I assembled my card by adhering my background pieces using liquid adhesive. I then added my mermaid using foam tape. 

To complete my card, I heat embossed the sentiment onto a sentiment strip diecut and adhered it onto my card using foam tape. 

Have you made any Mer-May-zing cards this month? Check out all the products I used here and all other the mermaid products as well. Happy crafting!
