Kimono Butterfly Mermaid

This is my second post for the day - if you are here to see me Sweet November Sneak Peek, please scroll down!


Hi! I just wanted to make a quick post to show you a Sweet Pea card I made! This is ching-chou kuik's Kimono Butterfly Mermaid (sheet 19, Plate 54). I think she is so beautiful and she was so much fun to color! I again used my Twinkling H2O's for the background. I have gone from hating them and wishing I had not spent the money on hem to LOVING them! They make a super fun and easy background! For the "frame" around her, first I cut a 3.25 square using a Martha Stewart edge and matching corner punch. I turned it on it's edge like a diamond shape and put it behind her. That didn't seem like quite enough, so I punched 4 more corners and trimmed them off of the square and glued them on top of the image..

Sparkly Light of Beautitude

Hello! I have made a card today using one of the more recent ching chou kuik images from Sweet Pea Stamps. I have just discovered glimmer mist sprays and have really been having fun with them so I made the background using the sprays and a butterfly screen. The whole card is very sparkly - I used Diamond stickles on her wings and body which has a gold/yellow cast to it's sparkle and then I used Stardust stickles on the candlight. I was hoping that this would make the candlelight give off a subtly different sparkle.
