You are so very special Mermaid

Welcome friends.  I hope everyone had a wonderful day.  Tomorrow is Friday so for those of you who have to go out of the home to work, I pray y'all have a great day!

This first card uses an image from Anne Fenton.  If y'all have never used one of her images, I have to tell ya, y'all are missin' out.  She is a fab artists with some of the cutest digis ever.

I colored this cute little mermaid with my colored pencils and OMS. I chalked the sky background and added a bit of sunshine at the top.  For this card, I actually picked the background paper first and colored the image to match the paper.  The DP is from DCWV Glam Girl pad.  I used Gina K heavy base weight white for the 5.5" card base.  The turquoise and pink card stocks are from Recollections. I used a beautiful turquoise ribbon from Offray and wrapped it around the back ground paper and tied a knot-bow.  The sentiment I printed off of my computer and matted it on Hot Pink card stock from Recollections.  I added three pink gems and three turquoise gems from Queen and Co. to finish off the card.

I appreciate y'all stoppin' in to check out my creation.  I hope to see ya back on the next post.  I just want to thank y'all for the wonderful comments you have been leaving.  It's a blessing to me.  Have a wonderful day.  God bless y'all.
