Hello friends and welcome to my first post this month. As many of us know, today is the official start of MerMay. That means that artists all over the world create a work depicting a mermaid. It's a month long fest.
I adore mermaids and so I chose to feature a gorgeous mermaid by Conie Fong called Rosealea Mermaid. Actually, this is my third DT card using this stunning image. It is available in JPG and PNG formats. Plus, it comes with the mermaid facing right and left, and two sentiments.
I used Copic markers to colour her, and added a seashell clipart image behind her. Then, I drew some bubbles for added interest. I also added some dimensional stickers on the top and botton of the frame
For more wonderful inspiration by the other Design Team members, and anyone else who joins her monthly Facebook challenge, please see here.
Thanks very much for visiting. Have a lovely day. Lori xx
