Good morning all. I hope your week is going well!
I'd like to extend a warm welcome to my new followers. I'm honoured that you've chosen to join me and I hope you find something that perhaps will inspire you in some small way.
Today starts a new challenge at
and we are sponsored by the wonderful
and
It's our fabulous, multi talented, super busy owner, Judith's turn to host this week and she has chosen
Cute and Cuddly as the theme.
We were fortunate enough to select a stamp of our choice from Bugaboo and I chose Ava Mermaid. Two of our granddaughters are off to Florida this week for March Break and one will be celebrating her 10th birthday there so I thought she might like this card. This is not the shape I had originally planned but I went back to my favourite 6x6 square card. I used Alyce's tutorial that can be found here to help when it came to colouring Ava's tail! Spellbinder ovals and Back to Basics Tags, MB Big Splash Border, along with CB Divine Swirl embossing folder were all used on this card. The rosettes are from Stamp Simply Ribbon Store. To colour the cheesecloth, I stamped TH Evergreen Bough Distressed Ink on my TH craft sheet, spritzed it with water to dilute and then added the cheesecloth....let dry and there you have it...perfectly coloured to match my SU Bermuda Bay cardstock.
I hope you have a chance to check out the challenge, see the wonderful creations my team mates have made and play along with us if you can.

Fab choice of colors, perfect for this underwater themed card! I really like the idea of coloring the cheesecloth and the Big Splash Border die works wo well with this design, Love the ribbon with flowers too!
I love the shade of teal you have used. Lovely card! Thank you for playing along at Paper Playtime this week :)
Bugaboo must be playing up as a box comes up where your card should be and then promptly disappears. So sorry I can't comment on your card because I can't see it. But I've read some of the other comments so it does sound lovely. Thanks for linking up with Make It Monday this week.
Remember, to be in the running to win the prize from our sponsor this week just leave a comment for another entry. Be sure to mention you saw them on Make It Monday. The more entries you comment on the more chances you have of winning!

Ok, I'm back - couldn't let blogger (I meant blogger, not bugaboo in my other post!) beat me, so I popped over to the Fab'n'Funky Challenge blog and took a look at your card there, It's beautiful, love the colouring of the cute mermaid and the gorgeous flowers and layout. A real beauty. Thanks again for linking up with Make It Monday.
