I used some circle dies in various sizes to make the base design, the largest I also cut one out of some 300gsm card stock, 2. I cut a sliver off the back bottom edge of the card base so the card will stand up, 3. I then added the designer paper over the top which I had distressed with some vintage photo then used my distress tool on the edge 4. Layer up the next designer papers in the same way 5. Distress the edges of the circle with the copic coloured image on too, I also added a hint of silver and Gold with metallic pens and some white dots in the hair too 6. Fix this onto a slightly larger circle, which has again been distressed 7. Add a cut out circles die between the 2nd layer from the bottom and the circle behind the image, on the right hand side 8. At this stage also add one of the die cut Jelly Fish 9. Fix the image and larger circle behind the image onto the middle of the card 10. Add some more Jelly Fish dies onto the left hand side of the image 11. Add some more sea themed die cuts here and there to keep in with the theme using similar colours you've used for the image to tie it all in 12. Finish the bottom of the card off with some Jewel type stones or beads 13. Attach a foam pad onto a die cut Sea Horse and attach over the jewels so it is above them 14. Do the same on the other side with a Star Fish die cut 15. To finish off add some flowers Supplies Used: 300GSM card stock/ white Copic pens Metallic silver and Gold pens WOC flowers Hunkydory - Spectacular Sea Creatures Dies lizscreativecorner.blogspot.co.uk

Hi Everyone, I made a 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 thick card base and added layers of designer paper. I distressed the edges and added some of Sherri's glitter to the edges along with some matching paint. I used some fancy crepe paper ribbon on each side and added some pink beaded strands. I finished it off with a cupcake resin embellishment and 3 white pearls. I fussy cut the lovely Bestie image and added a cotton white doily behind her. I used the Prima Love Story paper.  Mermaids are always so fun to create with! This image is pre-colored by one of the My Besties colorists.

Over at My Besties Sherri has created some fabulous Halloween images and I couldn't wait to colour this adorable cute image up. I started out with a tag shape and I then added some Halloween themed die cuts along the edges, these I cut out of card stock then added some heat embossing over the top and a little distress ink here and there to give an aged look too.  I used a brick effect die cut by Sissix for a little added interest, I die cut out the moon and the pumpkins in card then coloured them and the image with my copics, I then fussy cut out the image with my scissors. I finished off my tag with some metal sequins from Swedish House Crafts and some of my handmade Foamiran flowers with a die by Lady E  Copics used:

Such pretty images from the July My Besties Release!! I created a shaker card with this image! I am using a My Besties Image set, called "Make a Splash"  I have used Copic markers to color these images. *Shabby Tip: Use lace instead of clear acrylic for your shaker card. Add some sequins instead of beads so they don't go through the lace.
