Welcome
This card was made for a young girl who loves pinks, purples and mermaids!
It started with a Brusho panel I had in my stash of pre-made backgrounds. The panel even had some sparkle on it from Brusho pearl SprinkleIT that I had used
The images were all stamped on plain card and cut out after being water coloured and liberally smothered with WoS.
The stamps, including this sentiment, were all part of a set of magazine freebies.
I white embossed the sentiment directly onto the background.
Here you can see some of the shimmer - I even trimmed a piece of silver card into the mirror centre.
The shells were water coloured and 'winked', the seaweed was stamped onto a snippet of water coloured coloured card
The inside was finished with a strip of washi tape, keeping the sparkly theme :).

Wow, what a fabulous card Maxine! I love the inky background, the shimmer and shine is just beautiful. And speaking of beautiful, omgosh, your mermaid is stunning!
