Beth Duff Designs: Follow your Dreams!

I think this card is going to speak to a lot of readers! Follow your dreams they know their way!

I created this card using one of Beth Duff Designs digi stamps that she's provided to a select few who are trying out for her design team. Try outs aside - I really loved this image and had the perfect sentiment to partner with it. 

Here is the card:

When I saw this digi stamp I knew I wanted to create a wave like background - I would normally stamp more, create patterns but this wasn't the option available so... I decided to use a Lawn Fawn die set (Hillside Borders) to create my waves using different shades of blue cardstock. I even used some corrugated card (which flattened slightly in my Cuttlebug), and some vellum. Some card I even embossed then I added sequins and machine stitched lines - this card is very textural! (I LOVE IT!)

The mermaid I coloured using Copic markers and I added extra interest to her hair and tail with Wink of Stella - clear (glitter) and tiny star sequins. Because mermaids are suppose to sparkle!!!

Below you will find a list of supplies used to create this card and of course lots of detailed photos.
