Believe....

When I saw this beautiful mermaid designed by Amy Y, I just had to have her! Pearl Tidepool & Seamoor...what perfect names. They are so so adorable!! This is my first time trying the monochrome technique, I chose purple and it so much fun to do!  Following the ATS and Tamiko's challenges, here's what I did.

When I finished coloring Pearl I thought, why did I color her face purple??? Then I lightened it up with the blenderless pen, and it turned out better. Added stickles shine and liquid pearl to pretty her all up! Flowers are from Petaloo...after a long search thru my stuff, I finally found some glass beads that I added to the center of the flowers. Ribbon and sentiment stamp are from Michael's and dp is from my old stuff. For someone that just got into cardmaking, I have alot of old stuff! lol! I bought alot of extras when I did party and wedding favors...now they come to good use!

Let's Play

I found a cute cute image (and free too!) from 2 Cute Rubber Stamps. They are having a fun challenge and all you need to do is to create something using their free images. Hula Hamster was ready to play and so was I! I used an awesome sketch created by fabulous guest sketch artist, Kyah, from Whimsical Wednesday. Check out the fabulous creations by the amazing Daredevils!

here's a close-up of Hula Hamster swinging away!

She's colored in copics, and her hula hoop is shiny in glossy accent! Added some stickles to the flowers, and used a MS punch for the doily lace. Ribbon and sentiment stamp is from Michaels. Finally the dew drops on the corners are from Joy at Tamiko's. I was her blinkie winner and look at the goodies she sent me!

Check out her wonderful blog and find out how you can be a winner too!
