Good Morning!
Can you believe it is time for another fun digi release
from
FRESH BREWED DESIGNS?
I am the owner, and I still can't believe it :)
This summer has flown by, so I decided to create several new mermaid digital stamps
to hopefully capture one last glimpse of the magic it brings.
For my cards, I chose to create with
MALUHA and MARISOL
First up is MARISOL
*one name meaning: loneliness
I LOVE her! Don't you?
I am so critical of myself when drawing / sketching things.
She was one of those that just HAPPENED.
The pencil drew her and I watched her be created.
Coloring my own images is a whole different experience.
I think that my mind gets away from the fact that I actually drew her,
then focuses on bringing the image (Marisol in this instance)
to life. I really enjoyed coloring her, adding the touches of glitter,
seashells, and gold glass beads.
{Here is a closer look of the glass beads}
The background paper was also fun to create.
I got out my kids old crayola watercolor and went to town!
I was flinging paint and splattering it and having so much fun.
THEN I came back into the kitchen to wash my hands and found
that I had splattered paint up the entire wall, all over the cabinets and
UNDER the cabinets as well. OOPS!! Thankfully it wiped right up :)
While the paint was still wet, I added salt to create the distressed look, let it
dry, then added spots of glitter and some gold frantage.
Now it is time to meet
*name meaning: Peace, serenity
I kept in the same color families when shading this image.
I chose a charcoal grey for the background to give it a dreamier, sort of
dusky feel. The paper was created the same was as the first.
The sentiment is a rub on.
Here is a photo of the sparkle and glass beads.
