Today's gonna be a quick one as I'm already running a bit behind this morning. Remember a week or so ago when I posted my My Guy Ian card for Gabby's swap over at Split Coast? Well I finally settled on an idea and design for my Miss Anya cards and here she is. I did some serious altering of the sitting Miss Anya from the Love set and turned her into a mermaid. Once I did that how could I not give her some 'Ariel' red hair LOL! ;)
It's hard to tell in the pic but I also heat embossed waves with clear UTEE along the bottom of the card to make this little mermaid feel right at home and I have to say I'm very happy with how this one came together.
Now comes my perennial plea for Marie to make us some real mermaid and fairy Miss Anya sets... wouldn't that be FABULOUS?! Raise your hand if you agree... puppy dog eyes and long, pitiful looks don't hurt either. :)
Alrighty, I've seriously got to get moving. Smooches!
