Each and every order placed this week, will receive a little goodie bag of random bonus accessory stamps in your package! How about that???

So for our blog hop cards Hannah and I decided to use the sweet Mirina! I love the humour in this image. The look on the wee fishy's face is just too funny! So, I used one of the funny sentiments that comes in the Mermaid kit because there just seems to be "something fishy" going on here, smile! I made an Easel card from AC Cardstock and used K&Co. Citronella paper. The ribbon is by AC too and I added some bright, citrus coloured Prima flowers with green half pearls.

I also added some rain dots for bubbles and a few of them are even heart shaped...ahhhh! I cut Mirina out with my circle Nesties using the "Out of the Box" technique, inked with Mustard Seed Distress ink and matted with the Big Scalloped circle Nestie.

-----Jr. Krafty Girl, Hannah----

Hannah made her 6x6 card from AC Cardstock too and used papers from the MME Totally Girl stack. She coloured Mirina with Mommy's Copics ( and she is really getting good at it too) and I helped her cut out the image with the Lable Ten Nestie that she picked because she thought it looked like an open clam shell...(good thinking)! She inked the image while it was still in the die with Tumbled Glass Distress inks.

Hannah added a few Prima Flowers and some bling. Then stamped one of the 20 coordinating sentiments that comes in the Mermaid Kit with Rose Bud Memento ink. She added a few bubbles and a lot of Strawberry Ice Stickels to Mirina amd her "fishfriend".

Well, Thanks for stopping by and having a wee peek at our cards! Now, hop on over and pay Steven, our New Krafty Artist, a little visit! Don't forget to leave a comment!

Hugs and Happy Hopping!
