Mermaid

Good Afternoon everyone, I hope you are all keeping safe and warm.  Today's card is for this week's challenge over at Less is More.

For our first Anniversary we are back to a repeat of our inaugural challenge which for the first Saturday of the month is colour... and this time we have chosen 
AQUA

 
The image is from Clarity, stamped with Momento and coloured with Promarkers.  As you can see I have been inking again, I did this with Adirondack Aqua and my trusty inkdusters.  I have added  Waterfall Stickles on all of the bubbles and dotted some of it round the mermaid's tail.  I coloured the ribbon with the Aqua inkpad and the sentiment is computer generated.   The image and sentiment are both matted onto Papermania and matt silver cardstock from my stash.  The colours are much prettier in real life, not quite so dark looking,

I hope you like my card and many, many thanks for taking the time to visit.
