FBW #256

Time for another Flutter By Wednesday Challenge! Be sure to visit the Flutter By Wednesday Blog to see how you can play along and to see all the wonderful Flutter By Team creations!

This week our challenge is a fluttery recipe~ 3 patterned papers, 3 embellishments and sparkle. When I made the challenge I thought it would be pretty simple but I think from the groans I heard from my team, it was truly a bit of a challenge. 

I used a darling stamp from Sweet Pea Stamps called Tide. She is from Elisabeth Bell for Sweet Pea Stamps collection. I am really loving coloring the tails on mermaids lately...note to self--color more mermaids!! Mermaids also make me think of my online friend, Heidi Brawley, too--yes, must color more mermaids!



My layout is from the current Friday Sketch Challenge~



I hope you'll play along with FBW this week!! Thanks for stopping by!

Oh Danni, I think this must be my favorite card ever! I love how you have colored your little mermaid. She is just so sweet and I love her hair. What I really really love as well is the fact that you cut your image and background out as one. It just looks so sharp! I don't think I have ever done that and now I must try harder to get it done. lol... Hope you are well. Hugs Lisa G
