Water Babies

Happy Friday!  A host of new images is coming your way today from A Day For Daisies.  There are so many sweet and beautiful new mermaid images, some with adorable little babies! 
I printed the image on Flourishes Classic White card stock and colored it with Copic Markers.

After coloring, I painted over the mermaid with Twinkling H2O in Icicles.  It gave it lots of nice shimmer!  I also used Star Dust Stickles to add sparkle to the flowers and around the image.  Then I added lots and lots of tiny self adhesive pearls from Kaiser to her hair.   You can see the sparkle and details better in the close up below.

The background was created with a Spellbinders Embossing Folder.  After embossing the sea ferns I brushed white chalk ink over the raised parts to make them stand out. 
Pop on over to see all the great creations today from the lovely ladies of A Day For Daisies!
