Isn't she just gorgeous? Her beautiful hair and pretty seashell crown. This time I tried to mix oranges and pink for her hair, and a iridescent color for her seashell top and matching crown. She has a couple of friends joining her in the colorful ocean water! The glittery "Aloha" cut-out is from <a href="http://crazyforpaper.blogspot.com/">Jenny</a> (thanks <a href="http://crazyforpaper.blogspot.com/">Jenny!</a>), and can be purchased from <a href="http://islandscrapbooking.blogspot.com/">Island Scrapbooking.</a> Found a couple of old flowers in the perfect colors and added a tiny seashell in the center of one.<br />
<br />

My post today features Simona...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bm4U19hLgpI/UaapAGDgC3I/AAAAAAAACjg/vQCG2LzlCNY/s1600/IMG_8092a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="375" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bm4U19hLgpI/UaapAGDgC3I/AAAAAAAACjg/vQCG2LzlCNY/s400/IMG_8092a.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
I wanted this card to have a more natural look, so I chose only couple of colors to compliment the browns. The starfishes were fussy cut and layered on top of her beautiful hair. Used a star tag and turned it into a starfish charm tied with twine. The green leaf-like border is part of an old ribbon pack from Michael's Recollections, and finally added some flowers and seashells at the bottom corner.<br />
<br />
I have to admit, Simona's hair was a challenge to color. This is the third try that you see here. First try, the markers started to make ugly streaks. Then tried to color her hair only and paper piece it on, but NOPE, that didn't work. So finally, I decided to re-stamp and color her entirely with different hair color than the original one. I have to fix those darn markers!<br />
<br />
Okay... if you haven't yet, stop over at <a href="http://craftybuzz.blogspot.com/">Debi's blog</a> and <a href="http://sisterstamps.blogspot.com/">Sister Stamps blog</a> to see more cute stuff! One more day tomorrow to share the last of the mermaids!<br />

and guess what... I've been invited to be the guest designer for the newest June release!! The mermaids are just too cute and plenty of fun to color! Today, I'm featuring Eliana. She's swimming in her beautiful ocean of flowers and stopping to visit some friends. Inspired by <a href="http://craftybuzz.blogspot.com/2013/04/birthday-shakers.html">Debi's shaker cards</a> with sequins, I decided to finally try it! Followed her technique of using tape, but not washi tape since it was going to be covered up. It was fun and easy to make, I'll be trying it again soon!<br />
<br />
Please head over to <a href="http://craftybuzz.blogspot.com/">Debi's blog</a> and the <a href="http://sisterstamps.blogspot.com/">Sister Stamps blog</a> to see more of the new releases! and be sure to leave some sweet comments at the official <a href="http://sisterstamps.blogspot.com/">Sister Stamps blog</a> for some a chance to win!<br />

I'm popping in today to share the valentine tags I made with the cute <a href="http://www.whimsiedoodles.com/">Whimisie Doodles</a> images.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4YcoC5oiWBY/URcD0ctuRiI/AAAAAAAACWI/vduUrIvx2gI/s1600/IMG_7791a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="181" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4YcoC5oiWBY/URcD0ctuRiI/AAAAAAAACWI/vduUrIvx2gI/s400/IMG_7791a.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The image is part of a cool <a href="http://www.whimsiedoodles.com/whats-new.html">set of 8 images</a> plus sentiments, and two print sheets to make gift tags! This tag was pretty simple and quick to make. Just print, color, and cut out the gift tags. Then adhere it onto a tag... mine is handmade... just a 4 1/4 x 2 1/2 rectangle, border punch one end, and cut out the corners on the other, punch a whole and add your ribbons! Found a <a href="http://ginghamcherry.blogspot.com/2010/02/hearty-paper-free-printable.html">free digi heart banner</a> background that I printed out and wrapped it around the candy bar. Then just add your finished tag!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here's a pic of another tag...</div>

It's been a while since my last post. I've had a change in my work schedule, so less time for me to craft! {very sad} :( I finally got to finish my <a href="http://atsblog.typepad.com/wednesdayschallenge/">ATS Challenge</a> reminder project...<br />

It can hold a few treats inside, and the black flap tucks into the back of the box. The front has a Tiny Tag from <a href="https://www.papertreyink.com/index.php?p=home">Papertrey Ink </a>with a hand written message. Found a piece of scrap for the backside to hold down the flap.</div>
