 UPCOMING RELEASE / HOP

PLEASE READ!

**As many of you know, my mom was diagnosed with a rare form of uterine cancer. 

She had a CT scan last week that showed it to be contained in her uterus. PRAISE GOD!

Her surgery is going to be on July 22. My friends and I have set up a fundraiser and digi release

in hopes to help relieve some of the stress of the medical expenses she will have and allow her to focus on getting better.

 I have set up a GIVEFORWARD fundraiser >>HERE<<

My friend Carolyn and I also have several special digital stamps in the shop 

All funds from the sale of these and ANY items in the shop will be given to my mom to help pay for anything she needs during this time.I know that many of us do not have money to give. Believe me. I understand. 

But if you believe in the healing power of prayer, then please pray. 

God is in control. He is working and he does hear our prayers!

Thank you all in advance for your prayers and for your support.

DT Feature: Marji - MERMAIDS

It's time to say goodbye to summer but that doesn't mean we have to say goodbye to

all of our favorite summer stamps! NO SIREE!!!

Marji has created several beautiful cards featuring our

newest mermaid additions to the shop. 

MEMORY DIGITAL STAMP

MARISOL DIGITAL STAMP

MALUHIA -  Mermaid Tail - DIGITAL STAMP

You can read more about these cards and a cute little story about Marji's little girl over

at her personal blog: TIGGERSCRAPS

Thank you for stopping by!

Have a blessed day. 

Merman

OK, so I don't draw many male images... but when I

was sketching up my new mermaid digis, I decided they 

HAD to be made. I drew my not so skinny guy, Merlin, 

and then his companion, Myrtle. Then I decided to make a more

'handsome' merman. I always have a harder time drawing men, but

was happy with the way he came together. 

Marinus Digital Stamp - Fresh Brewed Designs

This digital stamp, Marinus, was colored with Copic and prismacolor makers 

then painted over with creative inspirations paint: fairy dust.

I do think this project would have looked better as a tag, 

but I ran out of time. :(

Thank you for stopping by!

Please check out our digital stamp relase post HERE 

for your chance at winning a digi from the release. 

You have until 11:59 PM TONIGHT, August 9,  to play along. 

Have a very blessed day!

FRESH BREWED INSPIRATION

LINDA

Drema Mermaid Digital Stamp

Isn't she just gorgeous?

I love the hot pink hair and that Linda stepped out of her comfort zone

and tried a little distressing! Beautiful!

And check out that ADORABLE paper!

I can't help but start singing 'Under the Sea' from the Little Mermaid

when looking at this. And so fitting since Linda is living it up right now at Disney.

Sigh. ;)

LORI

Merlin the Merman Digital Stamp

Oh Merlin! You silly merman! You make me smile.

Love the way Lori shaded this image and the fun sentiment

she paired with it. Merlin looks as handsome as ever ;) 

Much like most of our hubbys, right ladies? 

Beautiful bright colors and such a happy little card! LOVE!

Thank you for stopping by today.

I hope you all have a super fabulous and blessed day!
