A Mermaid in the Koi Pond

Stamp: Ching-Chou Kuik "Koi" Sheet #16, Plate #47



This is one of my favorite new images from Ching-Chou Kuik. It's simply titled "Koi", and you can see why. There are so many color variations in my friend's koi pond. I can see lots of color possibilities with this image. Realistic and not so realistic. Wouldn't a purple koi fish be amazing? What color will your Koi Mermaid be??

    OMG! This is fabulous! The colors are amazing and I adore the way you did the ribbon and the Cuttlebug embossing. All of a sudden I need that folder! It's sooo perfect with the image! xxD

    Thanks everyone!! Connie, I will let you in on the secret to the ribbon...a stapler. Yep, my trusted little Hello Kitty stapler. ;o) Just start at the bottom and staple, then scrunc some ribbon down, then staple..and repeat. Easy peasy.

    I don't know HOW you manage to color so beautifully, but you always leave me breathless. THIS one, however, is even MORE amazing! WOW!
