Many Marvelous Mermaids!
Howdy friends! Today’s project combines a lot of crafty goodness! I had so much fun making these cards and I hope they inspire you to create!

I worked an assembly line on these cards. I did a gel printing session, a coloring session, and an assembly session.

It can be daunting to think of making multiple cards in one sitting. It can also be overwhelming to gel print backgrounds for only one card. By breaking up the tasks I get to extend my enjoyment of my craft without getting stressed out and have a batch of cards to show for my effort!


You can see the complete process in the video!
