This beautiful, shimmering, 3D, birthday card was made using Dimensional Scenes - Mermaid Tales
 |
| I made it a easel card, added a gift card holder |
 |
| I welded wording on to the frame and added and extra shell from Life's A Beach |
 |
| Papers are laid out in "sync" order of cutting line-up |
For me, one of the most tedious parts is choosing all the papers. This project has eleven (11) different papers - most have a shimmering nature.
