Marina and the Pearl

Hello again!

Twice in one day!  What a pleasure to talk with you!  I have a Fat Page card to show you.   This is Marina from Delicious Doodles.  Delicious Doodles is our sponsor for Challenge 14, this week at Fat Pages and Cards with Attitude.  Isn't she something?   I am amazed at the detail and beauty of this image.  Don't you think she is lovely?  I sure hope that pearl doesn't entice her to bite that feather fishing lure!

Marina was colored with Prisma Pencils and OMS.  I used green glitter pen in her hair and scattered some green gems.  The feather fishing lure is from my hubby's fishing box!  I attached it with fishing line and a few fishing weights, also from hubby's fishing gear!  The pearl is a large bead I had in my stash.  I paper-pieced a few fish to add dimension, also using green raffia for seaweed.  On her fin and coral front, I used a clear stardust gel pen.  Knotted some twine and glued it in place along the left side.  I mounted all on a die cut sent from a dear friend.  This is a true 4x4 Fat Page but you could use this image in any way you chose.  I think she is the loveliest of images I have ever colored.  Thank you, Delicious Doodles!

On my previous post, I mentioned that this weeks challenge, #14,  will end May 31st, running for one week only.  The theme is Anything Goes!  On June 1st we will go back to our every 2 weeks, with winners and a new challenge announced on Fridays.  Please take a moment and read the post just before this one as there is important news for you that you won't want to miss!  I don't think you want me to repeat the same thing so I'll leave it to you to check it out!

I sure hope you''ll join us this week at Card's with Attitude, and also enter your project in our sister challenge, ATC's & Cards with Attitude.  Just a little note to urge you to read the previous post, we have started a Top 3!  And we have new badges!  It is an exciting time at Cards with Attitude!  I hope you will join us!

My best to you all on Memorial Day.  Create some fond memories!  I realized how important they are.  Monday will be a special day for me.  OH, thank you so much to my new followers!  I am glad to meet you!  Talk soon.

Your friend,

Manderly
