All Things Magical and Mythical #124 Featuring Sirena 2 from Mmedell Illustrations

Good morning and welcome to this week's All Things Magical and Mythical post. This week, I have used an old digi stamp from MMedell Illustrations and I went for a combo I would not normally use - green, coral and purple. A bit out of my comfort zone here but I do kind of like the green and coral together! 

I found these patterned papers in my stash as I was looking for some to match the colours and went with these as they were all under the sea themed! I added a few seaweed and coral die cute and a fun sentiment and it was done!

Something Else on Saturday #248 Featuring Donut Days from Taylored Expressions

Good morning an welcome to this week's Something Else on Saturday post. I needed a donut die cut the other day for a card I was working on and realised I didn't have one! So I went shopping and bought this fabulous stamp and stencil set from Taylored Expressions. I did get the matching die as well, but didn't use it on this card.

A fun, quick card to stamp, but it took longer as I used my copics to colour it in. I might actually use the stamps to colour in the donuts next time!
