Hey there!
As June winds down I'm starting to wrap up my prolonged month of mermaids. That's not to say one or two won't swim onto the scene later in the summer (I still have a couple new ones I need to get my hands on) but the official month of mers is nearing its end. It's bitter sweet by this time since I do miss creating with my other stamps but I also feel like I still have so many mermaids waiting to get inked. I guess they will just have to be patient for another year. For my card today I have colored up the Mermaid Viviane digi from Make It Crafty. I'm pretty sure she caught my eye because the drawing style kinda reminds me of the cartoon characters I grew up with as a child, most specifically the Jem cartoons. Which now that I think about it is probably why she ended up with this funky ombre hair color, LOL! And for a fun change up I decided to color the water violet rather than blue and I gotta say, I love it. Viviane and her goldfish pal totally pop against these dark and mysterious waters. :)
Later gators!

Waving hello...
Hello there!
Today I'm branching out and coloring a mermaid digi from a new-to-me company, Make It Crafty. This fabulous finned friend is called Mermaid Melusina and I think it's easy to see why she's the first MIC digi to show up on the ol' blog. Just look at her sweet face and that tail... so much fun to color! I masked Melusina off and did a bit of stamping with the MFT Distressed Patterns set to create the faux watercolor look behind her. I really love the energy it adds to the over-all card design. :)
Alrighty friends, gotta run!
