I bit off a bit more than I wanted to chew with this digi that I decided to use for the kaleidoscope squares. It was on my to do list and I thought it was such a cool looking ocean scene for this. And it is. There are just so many small parts to color. I could have printed it out bigger, but I really wanted the whole octopus and part of the jellyfish. I stamped off these fun mermaids at Anne's house over a year ago now that we can't get together. I was so depressed about that and missing my stamping buddies this morning.
I don't like big square cards, so I kept the 4.25" size to my square and added the speech bubble up at the top to fill my A2 envelope a little better. These cards took me SO LONG this morning, but I think they were worth it.

I’m sitting here “OMGoshing!!” Being a colourer, I totally feel ya on the “bit off more than I could chew” part, but not only did you chew it up, you spit out oodles of kaleidoscope colours! So very cool!! OMGosh!! Yes, yes! So well worth it. Thank you for finishing and sharing this wonderful work. Love what you did with the sentiment. It will not only work for the purpose of filling the envie better, it’s also just perfect for your design.

My first attempt bread a lot of colouring too, hence my easier options today - but still not as much as these. Your underwater scene is absolutely delightful with all that abundant sea life. I see you put in a lot of work with the white gel pen too! Your celebrating mermaids are so sweet.
