I've been wanting to try out different techniques for awhile. How 'bout you? There are so many creative geniuses in the world for which I am grateful! That makes my job a little easier when it comes to trying to figure out a particular look I want for a card. I don't remember where I first found this idea (or even if I followed the instructions!).
I wanted my mermaid to have the look of being underwater. I didn't want to use Diamond Glaze or a similar product this time, but instead choose to use the cellophane that one of my stamps came in. I could have glued it down as is, but I decided to create some 'waves.'
It actually was very easy... I used my heat tool to distort and melt the cellophane until it looked 'done' to me! Here's the result:

What do you think? I hope I achieved my desired look... The image is Elania by Sylvia Zet for SCACD. I've used the following copics to color her: Hair - E35 E34 YR21 YR20; Skin - E11 E00 E000; Fin/Top - BG18 BG13 BG11 BG10 BG01 BG000 RV10; Rock - C9 C7 C5 C4 C3 C1; Greens - YG67 YG63 YG 61, YG11; Browns - E55 E53 E50/E37 E33 E31 E30.
Sorry...this is a terrible photo : (
For the background, I used a new stencil from Susana's Custom Art & Card Design called Fish Scales, which was designed by Victoria Case! I simply laid down the stencil on a piece of white cardstock, sponged Tumbled Glass and Bundled Sage Distress Ink over the entire area, and then trimmed to size. Voila'
I didn't have totally clear baubles for the 'bubbles' but you can find them (clear) *Here.* A little bit of Stardust Stickles and a frame of Glamour Dust around the image for a bit of bling adds to the water theme...
...and what would a card be without my paper pens? lol... I've used Graphite Paper Pen on this one. The fish charm is from my sweet blog friend Kelly (you ROCK girl!). It's attached with jump rings and a brad. A simple sheer black bow ties in the black pearls and rock... this one's already out the door for sale!
I even got in some sewing - yay!!!
