Ci sono molti bits and bobs, layers, ricicli e forme fustellate in questa card...
La base è un cartoncino azzurro chiaro piegato a metà. Sopra ho messo un cartoncino verde, perchè -alla fine di tutto il lavoro- mi sono accorta che avevo incollato il pannello al contrario :(( e così ho dovuto tagliare la card LOL. Sopra ho messo un cartoncino blu scuro, poi una carta patterned a pois e sopra ancora una carta recuperata da una rivista e passata in un paper crimper per ottenere l'effetto "onde" (la stessa carta che ho usato per questa card). Ho strappato i bordi alla carta con le onde per aggiungere texture.
Sugli angoli ho messo dei mezzi cerchi embossati, ritagliati da una vecchia card che non mi piaceva per nulla. Avevo embossato il cartoncino con una EF e poi avevo usato della mousse glitterata di due colori. La card era venuta orribile ma aveva una texture interessante e un bel luccichio e così l'ho riciclata. :D
Tornando alla card di oggi: a sinistra ho incollato un bordo Signature Dies by Johanna Sheen e le belle conchiglie di Cioccolato Barocco, colorate con i Promarkers e ritagliate a mano. In basso ho aggiunto dei piccoli leftovers di carta colorata con i Distress Ink avanzati da altri tagli: assomigliavano ad alghe... :D
... Sicuramente vi sarete già accorti che la card è piena di Nuvo Drops... forse anche troppo... ma non riuscivo a smettere! LOL :D
In alto a sinistra ho messo un'ancora, a destra una stella marina. Ho aggiunto un cavalluccio marino verde (brand Memory Box) sopra le alghe, poi due pesci, un'altra stella marina e una conchiglia (fustelle trovate in una rivista). Le alghe a destra sono fatte con una versatile fustella Tattered Lace che tempo addietro ho ricevuto da Brenda, insieme a molte altre che lei non usava più (grazie mille, Brenda!!)
Anche la sirena è colorata con i Promarkers Ho fatto dei puntini con la penna gel bianca sui suoi capelli (verdi) e ho aggiunto Wink of Stella un po' dappertutto, anche sui cavallucci marini.
Purtroppo nelle foto non sono riuscita a cogliere tutto il luccichio...

What a beautiful, sparkly and gorgeous underwater scene you've created! I love all the Nuvo drops - it makes things look like they're glistening in the clear water! Great elements like the anchor, sea horses and starfish make this little underwater beauty come to life! Absolutely gorgeous!
Omgoodness, there is so much to love with this card, Alice! So much detail - and your made it shine! I love underwater scene and the torn paper (distressed!) and how much the lovely mermaid is so cute. Gorgeous card! xoxo
Magnificent Alice. Love Nuvo drops myself..[you should have used the drop stamps I sent you, maybe a tad big thought]. Love the signature die and your gorgeous mermaid is a delight to see. So much to look at the shell clam and colours are just absolutely gorgeous. You have added so much I keep seeing more and more, like the little anchor and fish...just stunning..love it.xxx
Absolutely gorgeous Alice!! Beautiful colouring of the mermaid and her sea friends. Fantastic use of die cuts which all work perfectly together to create your wonderful scene. Can you ever have too many Nuvo drops? I think not :D. This is just a marvellous card and I love it!!! Debra x
What an amazing card Alice. The image is gorgeous and you’ve coloured her beautifully. I love how you’ve added all the little seaside embellishments and they all work together so well to create your finished card, it’s spectacular:). Crafty hugs, Sandra x
Buon giorno Alice,
Così tanti pezzi belli e diversi da te di recente, sei stato sicuramente molto impegnato. La tua immagine LOTV è così dolce e abilmente combinata con tutti gli altri elementi per creare una così bella creazione estiva.
Passa un buon fine settimana. Qui abbiamo ancora sole e 30 gradi, tempo davvero insolito nel Regno Unito per così tanto tempo.

So enjoy seeing what you've created with your bits & pieces, the recycled objects and this one is stunning - as always. So many layers, details. The crimper really did give the effect of wave in the magazine piece, and brilliant idea to do that. I thought the Nuvo drops were perfect for all the tiny water bubbles too. It's a darling image, beautifully colored. I also really liked using the little 'heart vine' as seaweed. YOu've got lots of lovely & perfect embellishments and wonderful that you could see the possibilities of your 'boo-boo' card. Sometimes I can see with that kind of an 'eye', but usually not so much! This was a brilliant save for you. Well done, Alice! This is gorgeous. TFS & Hugs.
Your mermaid is delightful! Love the crimped blue paper and all the nuvo drops - they are so pretty. The pretty white die cut border really sets everything off!
Fantastic bits and bobs card, the seabed looks fantastic witch shells and grass and pearls and shimmer. Beautiful!
