Greetings everyone. Today's Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge card is made with an image from Michelle Perkett called Eva the Glam Mermaid. With a name like that, you know that nothing less the glitter and rhinestones and pearls were in store for this little lady. Eva was my dear Grandmother's name so I had to do her proud!! I also just some Cuttlebug shell die cuts both on the outside and inside of the card.
Punch Count
6-for the lace border
36 for the shell PATP inside the card and envelope
16 corner die cuts
4 Large scallop die cuts the image are layered on
2 Lattice pendant die cuts
10 Cuttlebug shell die cuts
No weight loss this week-stressing out and eating chocolate faster than I can punch and turn the crank on the cuttlebug.
Pamzi - this card took me a total of around 8 hours

Ohhh that's just gorgeous Bearzi!! So many details as always!! Okay -now that you are disclosing the amount of time that it makes you to make a card - may I ask the cost per card! ;) Looking at all of those lovely gemstones, theflowers, the number of punches - hey - you lost a lot of weight there!! ; - well - this must cost a pretty penny to make!!! Worth every cent though! Another masterpiece from Carol!!! Hugs!

Carol, I'm speechless. I can totally see why this card took you forever! I cant believe all the punches you've used and then to top it off, you didnt loose any weight. Oooh, now that's a bummer, dont you think. Your card is fabulous. I love all the glam and bling. Yikes, you left no stone unturned
with this one, girl. It's fabulous!

I think Arial (Little Mermaid) would be jealous LOL! Love the bling on the mermaid and the way you threaded the twine down the side.
