Welcome everyone! I have an exclusive video over on the MFT Youtube channel featuring a one layer card with the Mermazing stamp set. It’s an oldie but goodie and I was in the mood to color up a mermaid.

I don’t normally do one layer cards or fussy cutting because….well…. it’s fussy lol. But sometimes there is an image that is too cute to pass up and I discovered that I didn’t have the die for it. So fussy cutting it is!
I stamped the image on white 80 lb cardstock and also on a piece of masking paper. Then fussy cut and added over my stamped image to mask it off so I could create a background.
I ink blended Salvaged Patina, Mermaid Lagoon and Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide for my masked off background.
The image is colored with copic markers
- Hair – RV69, RV29, RV25, RV13, RV10
- Skin – E04, E11, E01
- Tail – G29, G17, YG06, YG00
- Star – Y38, Y13
After coloring in my image, I stamped the school of fish onto the background using Mermaid Lagoon and Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide.
The sentiment which is also off of the Mermazing stamp set is stamped in Versafine Ink.
