Sweet November "Surfacing" release party

Good morning! 

Welcome to the May digi release for Sweet November Stamps at 7 Kids! We couldn't celebrate MerMay properly if we didn't shine the spotlight on some new finned friends. This release is called "surfacing" because all four of these mermaids have made their way to the surface for some above the water fun. And the unique twist to these mermaids is that the PNG files for each come as two separate images, the torso and the tail, so that you can have fun playing around with the placement of each. And the tails can even be mixed and matched between three of them. There is also an Ocean scene background builder set full of lots of fun accessory stamps to help flesh out each mermaid's environment and for the next two days you can get the background set free when you purchase the bundle. :)

 First up we have Nixie, who seems to have been blown into some bayou waters during a summer squall. She's come up out of the water beneath a lily pad and now she's thinking it might make for a glamorous accessory, LOL!  

Next we meet Talise and this tropical beauty is no stranger to spending many a warm day daydreaming at the shore line. She and her BFF Gully, who just so happens to be the customer appreciation freebie for the next two days, love nothing more than chatting with each other about all the latest gossip.  

Lovely Loire knows that the old saying, "Red sky at night, sailors delight. Red sky in morning, sailors take warning" are wise words to heed. Unfortunately for that pirate ship it looks like they are heading into some rough waters, which means more treasures and knick knacks for Loire to add to her collection of strange land objects. ;)

Finally there is Nerida. This carefree mermaid is taking a cue from the otters she has seen and has lain back to relax on top of the waves and just let the current take her where ever it will. What a relaxing way to spend an afternoon!

And as always, this month's exclusive Fairy Tot digital stamp is only available to participants of the April Sweet November posting challenge. We know that sometimes it can be intimidating to put ourselves out there and share our creativity so these monthly Fairy Tots are our way of thanking everyone who plays along and shares the Sweet November love. If you missed out this month, no worries, just grab one of this month's images and join the fun in May to get your hands on next month's fairy. 
And don't miss out on all the fun and games and Live coloring videos I will be doing in the  7 Kids Customers Create Facebook group over the next two days as well, we would love to have you join us!
