Sunny Studio - Mermaid Kisses Slimline Underwater Card

Hello there,

I'm really happy to be back on Sunny Studio's blog with this underwater card featuring the mermaids from Mermaid Kisses. Aren't they beautiful? I love them so much so I went for a slimline design to showcase the four of them.


I started off by stamping my images on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. I cut them using the matching dies, and colored everything using my Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers and Graph'it brush markers. I picked my favorite color palette for when I make underwater cards, which is pink, aqua, purple and blue, and because it's quite a bright and colorful combination, I went for a neutral brown to color their hair.

Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Mermaid Kisses for most of the images  Fintastic Friends + Ocean View for seaweeds and rocks  Magical Mermaids for the water bubbles, small fish and seashells


Next I cut a Strathmore bristol smooth slimline panel to create my underwater background. On the lower part, I used a slimline hillside stencil along with antique linen and vintage photo oxide inks to make a sand border, I mixed some vintage photo oxide ink with water, and used a small brush to make splatters on my sand border. On the upper part, I applied, from top to bottom, wilted violet, blueprint sketch and peacock feathers oxide inks. I splattered water that I dried using a paper towel, mixed some black soot oxide ink with water to make more splatters, and then did the same with copic opaque white ink that I splattered all over my panel.


I white heat embossed my "Mermaid kisses, starfish wishes" greeting from Mermaid Kisses right in the middle of my panel, and attached all the images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. As always, I added highlights and details using a white gel pen, especially on the mermaids' tails, and finished my card by applying white blizzard nuvo drops on the water bubbles to make them sparkle.
