Hello everyone! I have a minute here to post my card and video that I made for Honey Bee this week using another of their mermaid sets (that I'm just a little obsessed with lately):
I pulled out my Gansai Tambi watercolours (again - I go in phases with colouring mediums. I'll use the same thing multiple times over a few weeks then something else catches my eye and I'll reach for that LOL!) and created a "watery" splattered background. I added some metallic/pearlescent shimmer using my FineTec palette (LOVE that palette - especially the bright brassy gold one - it's gorgeous in real life!!) while the colors were still wet.
The mermaid and fish are from the Honey Bee Under the Sea stamp set. I stamped them onto Bristol Smooth card stock with Hero Arts Intense Black ink then watercolored in the mermaid with the Gansai Tambi watercolours, then used the FineTec palette to color in the fish and to add highlights and details to the mermaid.
I finished off the inside of the card with sentiments from the Honey Bee Swimming By stamp set and added some more fish and that was it!
To see how this card came together check out my video below:
