Hello everyone!
I am here today with another FUN and HAPPY card. I am excited to share this one with you because it is the first time I have inked up this rubber stamp!!! This stamp is one of my designs found at Fresh Brewed Designs. She is called Marina: One of a Kind. when I was coloring her up, my daughter said "MOM! Why are you making this a gothic mermaid?!?" I had to laugh, then told her I wasn't and she would have to wait and see it. lol!!! I found this assorted paper stack of approx. 25 sheets of heidi grace paper at Tuesday Morning for a mere $5 months ago. I finally made myself break it out and use it. The lace is from a set found at Carolyn's Cards and Things. I colored her with prismacolor markers and fairy dust and tickled pink inspirations paints that I sell in the shop for $2.15 a tub! I LOVE these paints. They are so super fun and add an extra touch of shimmer to EVERYTHING :)!!! I painted her hair, fin, and the seashell with these paints.

Here is a side view of the card to show some shimmer
