I've not been able to do much crafting recently due to a very painful shoulder, I did get a steroid shot last Tuesday and it has helped but not as much as I hoped!. Today I was determined to try and get back to creating something so I settled on the Allsorts challenge which is Fantasy World. As usual I spent far too long procrastinating on what to use, fairies? Unicorns? gnomes ? finally settled on my favourite Stampendous mermaid stamp, she is so pretty! I spent ages colouring her tail with pearlescent paint and she is very sparkly IRL. The seaweed etc is a Kaisercraft stamp and I added some bubbles from another set , a few sequins and a rusty anchor.
Very magical and such a 'grown up' looking Mermaid, pretty colours as well, many thanks for joining in with our 'Fantasy' theme at Allsorts challenge.
ReplyDeleteHope the shoulder improves, a doctor once told me the more the injection hurts the more the chance of it working, something to do with hitting the right spot!
