Meet Marina and Aurora!!
9:23 PM
Today I have two gorgeous images from the Summer Mermaid Kit to share with you!! Can I just tell you how much fun I've had colouring these beauties up?? They are so magical!!

First, this is the marvelous Marina!! I decided to go a little unusual with the colours! I wanted Marina to be funky! I used these new Cosmo Cricket papers as my inspiration, so I coloured her tail in bright pinks and her hair in shades of green! A mermaid can be any colours in your imagination...yes?

I did the 'out of the frame' thing with the Nesties.....I do that a lot with these large images, I'm finding. And I coloured them up with my Copic markers. I added some gorgeous matching Prima flowers and some green rick rack. Lastly, I used the perfect phrase from the Mermaid Sentiments set!

Next I played with the amazing Aurora!! I just LOVE the starfish Annie used in her hair and for her earrings! I also used the starfish accessory stamp to make a couple of extra little decorations!

The patterned papers I used are some new We R Memorykeepers papers and I pulled the colours for the Copics from there. I cut Aurora out with my Nesties and sponged around the fram with some green chalk ink. I added some Prima flowers, some blue ribbon and a lovely starfish charm from Walmart!! I used another fabulous phrase from the Mermaid sentiments set and then put the finishing touches on by adding some little dots of sparkle on her tail and all the stars using my Sakura Stardust gel pen!
Don't you love them?? Don't forget that the new Summer Mermaid Kit and all the new Miles the Mouse stamps will be available on Sunday morning at the Kraftin' Kimmie Shop!!
Now go check out the other awesome creations the Krafty Girls have for you to see and come back tomorrow when we'll post another Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge!
Happy kraftin'!
