Here’s how I was inspired:

My project features these products by Hero Arts:

  • Big Mouth Sardine | die
  • Partners in Brine | stamp + cut
  • Well Preserved | stamp + cut
  • Wide Stripe Bold Print | cling rubber stamp
  • What’s Cookin’? | stamp + cut
  • Nesting Postage Stamps | infinity dies
  • Sky Ombres | hero transfers

I snuck in these too:

  • Spellbinders – Santa’s Sippin’ Sayings | stamp [happy holidays]
  • Spellbinders – Snowman Scene | dies [santa hat]

Here’s the story of these three Purrmaids, Mercats or how about Mermeows…They are sisters – Pearl, Coral + Umi [japanese for ocean]. It’s Christmas Eve and these Mermeows should be sleeping but Umi wants to stay up to spot Mer-Claus. I did a bit of masking on Pearl + Coral. I have them sleeping.

Does the stripe bedding look familiar? Check out my earlier project HERE.

I can’t wait to see how my teamies and the Guest designers were inspired, check out the post HERE.
