I got this idea from a magazine blog the other day and I immediately had to have a go! This was just a tester, as I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out, but its taken ages! I haven't had much crafting time this week with one thing and another, so had to grab every spare 5 mins here and there.

Ive used a mixture of Magnolia papers. (I feel really guilty when I cut into these!!)

Nestabilities label 10

The sentiments are also WOJ 'General Sayings'

Roses are made from grunge paper and are coloured with Weathered Wood Distress ink.

and bits of Ideology here and there.

And he looked through the broken glass in the Porthole and......

'OOOO there was a Mermaid!!' LOL
I had such fun making this card late last night. I just didn't want to stop!! Hee Hee
It sure was a difficult to photograph too, as I couldn't get the lighting right. So this will have to do. I have used Mermaid Tilda(one of my faves at the moment). The papers are Magnolia.
The ship script came in very useful for this and is from the 'Nautical' sheet From Aspects of Design(But is now being sold separately)

I used UTEE over her (3 layers), then cracked it when cool to make it look like broken glass. Around the outside I used Ideaolgy 'Hitch Fasteners' as the bolts on the porthole. Also the netting at the top is from my Garlic!!

Challenges I'm entering are

Just Magnolia-Crackled Glass Technique

Magnolia Down Under: Feathers,Fur of Fins

Fab N Funky: Living in a Material world

Thanks for looking

Love Debbie xxxx

Tilda Kiyomi

Those of you who follow my blog, will know I love anything Japanese. I have had a Japanese penfriend called Kiyomi for over 25 years and we still keep in touch. Which means I have every stamp(I think!) available and when I saw Japanese Tilda, I knew she had to be mine!

The Lilac paper is Magnolia and the Japanese paper is from The Stampman
