Yipee!!! It's And I have a fun card to share with you today. The image is from the SugarPlums Underwater Adventure set - Mermaid Emma. The sentiment is from Amy's Underwater Sentiments. Another must have!
I've had her colored and ready to go for weeks. And now she finally gets the card she deserves. I just *love* this pattered paper by Doodlebug Designs. I paired it with some of my coveted Cool Caribbean paper (retired) and ran my Cuttlebug bubbles embossing folder for the bottom piece.
I also wanted to do something different with her crown, so I used some tiny Primas and accented them with turquoise pearls. And as usual I used my Stickles throughout the card. It's hard to tell in the picture, but I also used my spica glitter pen on her hair to bring out her natural golden highlights.
Detail shot....
I hope you enjoyed today's card. It definately took longer than I wanted to make. I had a *little* furry helper who just had to see what I was doing.
Don't forget to stop by the All That Scraps blog to see more samples using these sets.
And guess what next week is? Yep you guessed it - SNEEK PEEKS start on Wed. 7/29!
Have a fabulous Friday gals!
I love your underwayer scene! Super cute card!
