Aloha Everyone,

Want to get in on the contest???  
It's easy peasy...just leave a comment on everybody's blog.   
You have until Oct 28th, 12am PST. 

We decided that we'd highlight all the images from our Kigurumi Kids series and I chose to do the fantastical and super kawaii YUMICORN!! 



I decided to focus on and play with the Perfect Tears tool set and 
it was fun and easy! 

Here's a pic of the set...
6 tearing edges and water pen
I used 3 of the different edges along with the water pen and I love the effect!  

All the paper is from the American Girl crafts Super Paper PadI've paper pieced Yumicorn with 3 different choices of dp paper and embellished the buttons with little crystal gems.  Her unihorn and her wings and the edges of the Perfect Tears strips are slightly dazzled with a dab and a spread of Stickles.  

The funny eye ball stickers for Yumicorn's outfit 
came from an awesome clearance find at Michael's...



I used Copic to color and to add shading on the paper pieces...

Time to keep on hoppin'.  

I'm gonna check everyone else's creations and then play some more with the other 
Perfect Paper Crafting tools!! 

Next up is

Aloha and hugs, 
Renate'
