Splish Splash

I needed a card to mail to a friend and this friend LOVES mermaids so this is what I came up with! Although now I'm thinking I shouldn't post this as she'll see it, but I love how it turned out so I don't think I can wait to post it so maybe she'll just act surprised when she gets it..hehe!

This mermaid is by Elisabeth Bell for Sweet Pea Stamps and is named Splish Splash. I haven't "sparkled" anything in a few weeks so it was fun to go a bit crazy with the stickles! The sky background is done with shimmer chalks. 




The layout started with an older sketch from Lesley's blog~ HERE!

Have a wonderful day full of happiness and thanks for stopping by!!

If all else fails, add pink, sparkle and a butterfly!
