Polly is hosting this week's teaparty for our very own Splitcoastie, Vicki aka basement stamper. Our challenge is to "emboss".
Vicki has a much loved Dachshund and I nearly fell off my unicorn when I realised that I could morph a sea-horse into a sea-dachshie!
The background is from my stash and I think it is a mixture of distress ink, Dylusions ink spray and a dash of Izink. After running it through an embossing folder and my nifty little Gemini Junior, I sanded the raised bits.
The mermaid and seahorse were printed on copy paper and coloured with prismacolour pencils, Zest it pencil blend and highlighted with Copics.
To make the seahorse into a sea-dachshie, I used a colourful scrap from my stash and made a body. I lopped off the original sea-horse head and attached it to the new body. Job done!
Thanks for looking and I hope you get a chance to join in our teaparty for Vicki.

Susie, your creativity has no boundaries! I love your sea-dachshie and your pretty little mermaid. Marvelous coloring on bg. Vicki will adore her Susie original.

So very creative. Specially morphing the seahorse into a sea-dachshund. Only the surgeon in Susie could pull that off so well. Lovely bright colours in your characters - they show up so well against that embossed background.
