Scene It Sunday #47 Featuring Argi, Intellectual Fairy from Las Cajitas de Elvi (Elvi's Boxes)

Good morning and happy Sunday! I hope you have all been enjoying the sunshine, if it has been sunny where you are. Here in the UK, we have definitely hit the start of our summertime now at long last! Anyway, for my Scene It Sunday post today, I have actually done my first class in Sandy Alnock's Copic Enchantment course. I have been a bit hesitant about doing these classes for no reason other than I didn't think I would be any good at them, but bit the bullet and jumped it and I thoroughly enjoyed doing it, even though almost every colour went sticky or ran out! I definitely need to make sure that my pens are full and clean before starting the next one! 

Before starting the scene I coloured this cute reading fairy I found on Etsy and will definitely be going back to buy a few more as there's loads of cute image in this store. I did colour her hair wrong though (I think she is supposed to have leaves in it, but I liked this colour and didn't want to start again, so she's got dyed pink leaves to match her hair colour now!)

I added a couple of little sentiments form Clearly Besotted as I wanted to make it look like she was reading her way through a forest on an adventure to a different realm!

#Mermay Challenge 5 - Shell

Hello and welcome to my #Mermay Challenge #5. Today I set myself the challenge of using a mermaid in a shell and combined this gorgeous mermaid from La-La Land Crafts with the shell and fish digis.

I attempted to do the first class from Sandy Allnock's Underwater Scenes class straight onto this image, but I'll be honest, I really should have practised it before trying it out on this card as I really didn't like the way the waves on the top of the sea came out. The colours didn't look right and then I had to blend, blend, blend until I got it looking ok. I'm still not 100% happy with it, but I guess it's ok. Going to have to go back and practise that class again!
