Mermaid on the rocks!

My second tag for Michele's Mermaid theme at

TAG TUESDAY

is a digital one.

As I said last week I don't have a mermaid stamp at all so

had a hunt around in my digi stamps and found this one

from Polkadoodles when I was on their design team many years ago.

She was already coloured so I just needed to create a little scene for her.

The underwater bit is from PNG wing, the clouds are from Nitwits

as is the seagull.

I finished the tag with some knotted rope from Nitwits

and a navy background.

Summer mood!

Today I am a guest designer over at

ALLSORTS

and the theme this week is a summer mood board,

so lots to choose from.

I went with the pink and green colours, flowers and a butterfly.

The stamp set I used is a retired one but a lovely set.

I used countryside corner dies for the layers

and Easter Bunny stamp set for the sentiment.

I finished with a bakers twine bow.

Summer rainbow

For my VIP group I made a rainbow card this week.

I went with bright summer colours and night of navy card.

The inside flower is the stencil I used to create the background

so rather than toss it I thought it would be perfect inside.
