When I was at CHA a couple of weeks ago, I picked up this really cute stamp set from the "My Favorite Things" booth. She's a little paper-doll set that can be dressed up in different outfits. Of course, knowing me, I had to dress her as a mermaid. :)
The little fish and seashells came from a SU set I've had for several years.
Take a close look at this die~cut frame and die~cut corners.... They are made using the wood paper from McMahon Five Designs online store. Isn't it amazing how well this wood paper works with die-cuts?! It's really wood that can be worked with like paper. I love it! I've used a lot of texture, metallic paints and glitter. The fish and seashells are embossed with copper embossing powder. Be sure to check out all the fantastic DT Samples over at the Midnight Madness Blog and leave a comment if you're interested in being considered for the Guest Designer spot for September too.

I was going to say WOW too. First off very cool corners with that wood and the shimmery, nice touch, and a mermaid card, you really love the water. Interested wit the stamp set with the cut-outs.
This is absolutely gorgeous, Michelle! Oh I love the wooden paper and all of the shimmers are perfect for the little mermaid image. Geat work!

Michelle, IMHO the best way to view this card is to click on it to get up and personal with it. Then you can see all the wonderful tedious details you put into this enthralling piece of artistry. The shells are exquisite, the fish are superb. Your frame and corner accents are striking. The embossed background is stylish. Job well done!!! tfs
P.S. thanks for the message, I appreciated it.
