Tulle Shaker Mermaid Cards

So I have been working on the Daily Marker 30 Day challenge and I have spent about 5 days on these, but I am so happy with the result. 

All boxed up. 

I started by stamping all of my mermaids and coloring them, and then fussy cut them all.

A school of mermaids. 

Then I did some distress ink backgrounds to resemble water and then sewed tulle around the edge to make shaker pockets.

I sewed circles on to make pockets. 

Then I used my We R Memory Keepers DIY Confetti Punch to make "Bubbles" out of glitter paper and trimmed down the tulle.

Almost done. 

Finally I sewed up the tops and attached them to A2 sized note cards. 

Done. 

I boxed them up with envelopes to complete the set and shipped them to a friend. 

I hope you try some new ways to make shaker cards and you have the chance to send someone happy mail! Happy crafting! 

The Daily Marker 30 Day -Day 7

I'm a little behind, but here are some mermaids that are for a card set for a friend. These were done on Bristol paper with Copic Ciao markers. That's one of my favorite stamps and I stamped the image using Memento in Tuxedo Black.

Surprisingly this didn't take that long, fussy cutting them was probably the most tedious part. I will post the completed set when they are done, happy crafting!
