Pastel Mermaid Birthday Card (Sweet Pea Stamps image)

Hi everyone,

I think this is one of my favourite cards I created in 2014 and so I am adding it to a couple of challenges that want us to show us our fave cards of 2014 that we made.

How beautiful is this image from Sweet Pea Stamps? The artist is Elaine Cox and this particular image is called Mirima

I have used part of a Grace pearl flourish from Flourish with a Bling who have a massive sale on, hopefully you'll go check it out, see below for details.

Flourish with a Bling have a 50% off sale all throughout January, everything is half off!! I hope you'll check out our website as we have our own unique products and we post worldwide. Please email if you would like rough estimates of shipping, if we can send it as a large letter we will or perhaps get your friends to all buy too and share the postage! If you're order is over $200AUD we will pay half the shipping (international orders). 

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

Artistic Inspirations - Our favourite things (our cards from 2014)
Clear it out - My favourite card of 2014
Deep Ocean - Favourite 2014 cards

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend, thank you so much for dropping in to see my card,

XOX Lucy
