Mermaid Card

 I wanted to use this cutie on a card and I had the perfect sentiment to go with it. I believe it is a Hero Arts but I am to lazy to get up and go look :) I used some DCWV paper and hand cut the flag.
I colored this Sassy Studio's image with Copics and added Stickles to the shells and inside the flower.
I used my Spellbinders to cut out the image and the background lacy oval.

I accidentally ripped my paper getting it out of the paper pack and thought hmm that might look good and it did. I love the happy accidents that happen in crafting.

GDT Baby Card

The new challenge over at Card Mania for these two weeks is baby. How simple :)
 
How cute is this card? I just love how it came out. I used a previous sponsor, Sassy Studios image. Maxi Skirt Momma is colored with Copics. I used my Spellbinders to cut her out and inked the edge. I used Jaded Blossoms Simple Sayings stamps on the front and for the congrats. The smaller sentiment inside is a Pink by Design stamp.
I always add a little color to the inside of my cards. I think it just makes them that much more special.

Teal Birthday Card

I am happy to say that I will be guest designing with Card Mania for the entire summer. This week's challenge is flowers. How simple is that!? I used flower paper, embellishments and a stamp. Over achiever I know :)
This is actually two stamps. The background stamp and then a birthday sentiment. I was unsure how they would look together but liked the result. The sentiment is Fiskar and the background I believe is too but I am not sure.
The inside is a Stampendous birthday set sentiment.
