Wow!! It's already time for another 7 Kids College Fund challenge. (Where does the time go?!?!)
This week is a sketch challenge with a beach theme.
For my Design Team sample, I've used Treasure Tempestwind by CC Designs. I think the Sweet November mermaids and their little sea pals are the most beautiful of all the mermaid images!! I just LOVED coloring all that flowing hair. She started out as a much paler blond but I just couldn't "leave it alone" and she became a golden blonde instead. Her tail sparkles with my concoction of Pixie Dust Shimmerz and Star Dust Stickles and lots of crystal rhinestones. And the half pearls were colored with my Copic (BG11) to match the pale aqua in the October Afternoon's Seaside designer paper. I've had this tiny little starfish for years, but figured this was a good time to finally use it!! :)
Challenges:

Magical Monday's = White + One other color
Stamp Something = Beachy Colors
Totally Papercrafts = #67 Don't be Square

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I havet o agree - these mermaids are just gorgeous. I love your papers & the combination of blues & whites plus the gem swirl & her waist belt etc...... give a brilliant sense of water, not to mention the embossing folder echoing the spotty paper. Wonderfully delightful.

Well she turned out fabulous. I am sure Brooke was excited to see she was right about you using the mermaid. (or does that mean she thinks you are getting predictable.)
