All Things Magical and Mythical #132 Featuring Go With The Flow from Sweet November Stamps

Good morning everyone adn welcome to this week's All Things Magical and Mythical post. This week I have made a very quick mermaid card using one of the many Sweet November Stamps images I coloured up for #mrrmay last month.

This image is one of two in this set and I just love her long flowing hair! I used one of my slimline dies for the frame and added some patterned paper behind the window cut out and added another frame behind it to hide the patterned paper before added my mermaid and sentiment to the front.  Very quick but a perfect sized card for this image.

All Things Magical and Mythical #130 Featuring Hali from Sweet November Stamps

Good morning everyone and welcome to this week's All Things Magical and Mythical post. This week I thought I had better start to use up some of the mermaids that I coloured up for the Sweet November Stamps #mermay challenge and pulled out Hali from the pile! She's so cute hiding behind her tail!

Scene It Sunday #191 Featuring Finna & Pearla from Sweet November Stamps

Good morning and welcome to this week's Scene It Sunday post. I can't believe today is the 1st June. Where did May go? I have used these cuties from Sweet November Stamps and the Deep background builder set as well to create this fun scene. I got all the mermaid new releases as digital stamps as I prefer digis to clear stamps for the most part (I do prefer clear stamps for sentiments as I can then stamp them in whatever colour matches the card) as I can resize them and make the scenes much easier than masking and stamping!

Something Else on Saturday #253 Featuring Aquata from Sweet November Stamps

Good morning and happy Saturday! For today's Something Else on Saturday, I have used another of my Sweet November Stamps mermaid stamps. I have a few of the clear stamp sets, but am so glad that they are now releasing all their clear sets in a digi bundle for a few days as I just don't have the space for loads more clear stamps and if you know me, mermaid stamps are always a must have! 

Anyway I made a quick A5 sized card for this one, with just a couple of pieces of patterned papers and a sentiment from a different stamp set and a few dots of Nuvo drops!

The Paper Shelter Challenge #594 Under The Sea & All Things Magical and Mythical #125 Featuring Mermaid Portraits

Good morning and welcome to this week new challenge from The Paper Shelter. This week our challenge, in honour of #mermay, is called Under The Sea so I have combined this challenge with my weekly All Things Magical and Mythical post as well. 

I have used this gorgeous image which you can find on Page 32 of the Mermaid Portraits colouring book. I coloured her with my usual Copics and then added lots of glitter drops for the bubbles.

All Things Magical and Mythical #124 Featuring Sirena 2 from Mmedell Illustrations

Good morning and welcome to this week's All Things Magical and Mythical post. This week, I have used an old digi stamp from MMedell Illustrations and I went for a combo I would not normally use - green, coral and purple. A bit out of my comfort zone here but I do kind of like the green and coral together! 

I found these patterned papers in my stash as I was looking for some to match the colours and went with these as they were all under the sea themed! I added a few seaweed and coral die cute and a fun sentiment and it was done!
