a pause to reflect, ICAD
my index card for today, for the "index card a day" challenge sponsored by daisy yellow art is on the theme of "pause." i had intended to mask the buddha stamp and forgot to do so, decided to continue with the card anyway. it therefore isn't quite as i had hoped but here it is.

altered card deck week 7; alphastamps giveaway
i hope everyone's hanukkah and christmas was blessed and joyous. now happy kwanzaa and happy new year! and happy "while the cats' away the mice will play" (more about that below). i only have a couple extra days off this holiday season but with my five day weekend (24th-28th) one of my goals is to get back on track with the altered card deck challenge at claudine's art corner,
claudine has been taking us through a journey altering a 52 card deck. i participated the first few weeks and then life intervened! so i am several weeks behind but hopefully i'll get 4-5 pairs done during my break, as you can see week 7 was a nautical theme. i used distress inks (sponged) for the background on the first and spray inks on the second. stamp credits on card 1 -- mermaid is by 100 proof press, seastar is by PSX, bubbles by G-rated stamps. the mermaid was stamped on primavera paper by itKuPiLLi and the torn paper is by lunagirl. the ship on the second card is a vintage image from the graphics fairy. i used promarkers liberally on both. i typed the words.
today is also a special day because of the post-christmas daily giveaways at the alphastamps blog.
please visit the blog daily starting today and comment for a chance to win amazing collage sheets and other goodies from the alphastamps company -- one of my favorites!

myths and legends
our latest prompt at tag tuesday is myths and legends. i've always been fascinated by mermaids and i have a quite a collection of mermaid stamps. according to wikipedia, a mermaid is a legendary aquatic creature with the upper body of a human and the tail of a fish. mermaids appear in the folklore of cultures all over the world including the near east, europe, africa and asia.
for this tag i used my one and only merman, a stamp from meer image.
i started by creating a background on a large tag using alcohol inks and a polished stone technique. my end result was very dark but i was delighted with the backside of the tag which had more variety and subtlety than the front so that is what i used as the backdrop for my creation. i stamped two different wave stamps (both from meer image) on the background. i stamped the merman, dolphin (PSX) and sea star (PSX) on blue card stock, cut them out and glued them on the tag. i also went over the sea star with an orange pro marker. i stamped the bubbles stamp (G-rated stamps) last. i love this fiber-ribbon i got at a garage sale next door last summer.
it is a nice fantasy scene i think.
