I couldn't let the summer go by without getting a lovely mermaid from A Day For Daisies on a card. They have so many beautiful mermaids to choose from that it was kinda hard to narrow it down. I finally settled on Mermaid She Dreams though I did a small alteration by masking the shoes out of her hands when I printed her out. This allowed me to add a shell and pearl instead which played back nicely to the sentiment I chose to pair with her. All the Copic colors I used were pulled to match this gorgeous Sea Maiden paper that was released from Authentique this summer, safe to say it is my favorite mermaid paper that I've gotten my hands on in quite a while. And even though I did color in a bit of a background it was fun to pull out my dies and give them a spin once again. :)
