Jane Davenport Artomology | Take a Deep Breath Mixed Media Card with Mona Toth

Hello everyone, it's Mona here, thank you for joining me. Today I am featuring The Artomology collection by Jane Davenport. Today I am focusing on using Washi Tape Sheets and Smooth Markers. I love the underwater critters and the used color combo on the Mermaids Washi Sheets so I stepped out from my comfort zone and I built my card only from this product.

First I made a 4,25"x5,5" card base. Peeled off the Washi sheet and adhered the white cardstock to the center of Mermaids Washi Sheets because I wanted to use the "Take a deep breath" sentiment.

When it was done I adhered the leftovers to the white cardstock and fussy cut them. The next step was to build a scene. First I glued the mermaid and the squid in the background and the red squid tentacle. Also added a little shadow around them with Dodo and Gallinule Smooth Markers.

Then I adhered the underwater plant to the bottom right corner and shaded with Gallinule Smooth Marker. When it was done I adhered and shaded the large red Octopus to the center of my card. Finally I colored some bubbles with the Gallinule and Dodo markers to the background and highlighted with White pen.
