Mermaid Friends!

 Hello!

It's the month of May (it may snow, it may rain, it may be sunny)

and it's a great time to celebrate with Mermaids

(since it's also Mer-May in lots of crafting circles).

I saw the gorgeous color inspiration from 

The Color Throwdown Challenge #793

 and decided that I needed to play along this week.

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps also has a challenge theme

(one of 3 to choose from) that inspired me.  

I used the "Use Bright Colors" theme from that challenge.

Here's my card for these challenges

Although it's difficult to see, I added a spritz

(or 10) of soft, shimmery glitter over the top of the

stenciled panel to make it feel more "magical".

The stamp set, Mermaid Friends, and the 

gorgeous Mermaid Scales stencil as well as the

ink I used (Tranquil Teal) are all from 

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.

I colored the beautiful mermaid and her sweet friend

with copic markers (BG45, BG53, YR09, YR07, YR04,

V12, V15, V17 and BG 70, BG72).

For a final touch of sparkle, I added some 

gems from Pink Fresh Studios. 

Hope you liked my card! Thanks for stopping by!
