Card Art with Copics: Lisa Victoria's Mercreature

Finally the light bulb went off in my head and I figured out what to do with the globe that this cute mercreature is gently holding as it fondly remembers events of the past.  This is the third of the rubberstamps I won as part of a 3-count grab bag prize for participating in a Sweet Pea Stampers challenge.

This photo shows a close-up of my Copic-filled Mercreature rubberstamped image.  On the stamped image, the globe that this mercreature is holding is left empty with just a few spots of drawn highlight areas.  It's a fun space that you can fill with whatever your heart desires.  I reduced and flipped the mercreature image then covered it with a self-adhesive epoxy circle from Creative Imaginations.

I used Bazzill for my card and added a layer of Hot Off the Press' Paper Pizazz Masculine sarapapers.  My oval stamped image is edged by deckle edged scissors.  I've added QuicKutz corners, a Spellbinders Floral Flourish, McGill fern punches and paper flowers.  A sentiment from Hampton Art's Studio G Clear Stamps and a Stampin' Up! Circle of Friendship set complete my flower and sentiment cluster.

Here's a view of my completed card front showing my version of Lisa Victoria's Mercreature . . .
