Now . . . are ya ready to see my version of
"Ocean's Gift"? Well, wait no more, my lovelies!!
I decided to keep this card pretty simple . . . because I wanted to really showcase this gorgeous little mermaid and her seahorse friend!! I must thank my sweet friend and DT sister, Astrid, for giving me the idea to use a real pearl (well, a real "faux" pearl) for the image's pearl! Thanks Astrid! I totally stole this brilliant idea from you...and I will definitely steal it again! You ROCK, girlfriend! hugs!!
These papers are delicious, don't you agree? So soft and muted. I love 'em!! Here's another side view . . .
