Sweet November Preview - Mermaids

(0 votes, average 0 out of 5)
           
Time for another peek at the stamps being released this month from C.C. Designs! Today the Design Team is showcasing the new Sweet November Mermaids.
         
I had so much fun coloring up this gorgeous mermaid! I kept the card pretty simple to show off all the detail on the image... Her tail is colored with Copics using the pointillism technique to give it a scaley texture, then I added a little glitter to the darkest parts of the tail. The paper is from an American Crafts 6x6 pad called Color Crush, and as soon as I saw this sheet, I thought it would be perfect for an under-water scene. The bubbles are from the My Favorite Things Blowing Bubbles set, and are stamped around the mermaid with Versamark Ink. I finished off my simple card with a bow and sentiment from AmyR Simply Enchanting Sentiments.
