Welcome back to my blog friends, and thanks for stopping by. ~ Today's card is a tribute to my love for all things oceany. That's a real word, right? As much as I love the ocean, I never go in the water except maybe just to get my feet wet. I'm afraid of what lurks swims underneath.
Maybe if I knew that darling little mermaids like this one from HoneyBee Stamps Swimming By swam around protecting timid visitors like me, I wouldn't be so afraid.
I cut her out using the coordinating Honey Cuts Dies and colored this darling little mermaid using Copic markers. I gave her a generous dose of Clear Wink Of Stella to really make her shine.
I hope you'll take some time today to visit Honey Bee Stamps and check out their complete line of ocean themed products. Plus they just had a new release full of the cutest stamps and dies. So much fun going on at Honey Bee Stamps!
I'll be adding this card to the following challenges:
Word Art Wednesday ~ Anything Goes
The Sisterhood of Crafters ~ Magical Fairy Garden
Simon Says Monday Challenge ~ Ombre (blended background)
Thanks for stopping by!

Birgit, this is awesome! I will go into a lake, but I do fear the little things swimming around my body and maybe getting ready to nibble at my toes...it does freak me out a bit! Your little mermaid is adorable as is the wonderfully awesome background! Well done my friend! I hope you have a most wonderful weekend and a Mother's Day too! Heart Hugs to you and I still miss playing with you! Col
This just leaves me in awe, Birgit! You truly should be a children's book illustrator! This is SO the cover of a mermaid book!! Happy Mother's Day! Hugs, Darnell

Gorgeous card, Birgit! Your mermaid just shimmers and your background scene is amazing! I stamped this girl of yours while we were at the craft house and colored her up before I went in for surgery. I will have to post it soon to show you. I scrolled down to see all your creations that I've been missing and I'll just say it is a feast for the eyes!
Wonderful underwater scene and I love that darling mermaid. She is so beautiful in her underwater playground!
Awesome underwater scene, Birgit! Love your sweet mermaid and all the wonderful sparkle!
Your blingy little mermaid just makes me smile!! she is adorable : )
