The Little Mermaid!

Hello friends!

Hope you are having fun crafting.  Like many crafters,  I am also inspired by Kathy Racoosin's  30 Day Coloring Challenge  as this challenge has encouraged me to color and I am really enjoying it :)

The cute little mermaid is Mermaid Anya. She is a digital image from The Greeting Farm. I colored her with copic markers  in black, purple and orange shades.

For a Princess!

Hello everyone!

Here is my latest tag for  Beyond Grey Challenges- Make your own embellishment... I chose to create a tag and decorate it with a handmade dress embellishment :)

The top of the dress is made with paper with very little stamping. The bottom is a 3 layers of kitchen paper, tulle and lace which I have gathered and glued at the waist. You can find the tutorial for this dress with template here.

I have used white, gold and silver colors for my tag and have embellish it with pearls, lace, ribbons and handmade roses. 

To add extra shine and sparkle, I glued Prima glass glitter on the paper skirt and  love the way it glitters :)

Here is another pic:

Shaker card(s)

Hello everyone! Today I am sharing another shaker card I made using this file from cameo.

To make this card, I first cut the front white sentiment in my cameo. Next I cut a piece of acetate and glued it inside using glossy accents. Then, I put thin strips of foam tape along the edge of the white piece to make it a window.  Finally, I spread red sequence on the base of my cardstock and covered it with this white window.

Here is the front view.

I love how my card turned out and made one for Dad too :)

Hope you like it :)
