Clam shell card


This commission was for a very proud grandma to send to her granddaughter who lives swimming. She requested a mermaid card and this is what I came up with.


The card actually fit in an envelope despite being hand delivered. The outer of the card was like a clam shell and the glittery sections I moulded the card so they appeared dimensional.


When the card opened I created an underwater scene with a mermaid and little seal friend with swimming fish. Her grandma asked for the birthday sentiment to be personalised with her name and age. 

Grandma was very impressed and her granddaughter I was told had stayed that the card was more like an ornament than a card but she lived it which was all that mattered to me.
