High Hopes Mermaid


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've been getting stuck into lots of shimmery and glittery goodies available from the shop :)

The card base has been cut from bazzill bling (11" x 5.5") and I've used two of the large range of High Hopes stamps available, the Mermaid and Horatio seahorse



The mermaid has been coloured with Ranger Distress inks first and then highlighted with H2O shimmer paints, you can see from the detailed close up below how shimmery they are!

I've added lots of bling dots created with lime green stickles.. really giving such a 3 dimensional feel.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It will be so exciting to have someone new join Nikki and Me on the DT Team and hope you will try out for Bryony's DT Call

Really can't wait to see all the creations with the sketch provided by Nikki for the first round..




Have a wonderful weekend all!

Hugs,
