The challenge for this first day of June was to use this month's birthstone---the pearl. I used an unbranded die to cut the mermaid. The shells were cut with Cuttlebug dies and rimmed with a Krylon gold leafing pen. The coral was cut with a MS punch. The large leafy seaweed was cut with a die from Sue Wilson. My sand was stamped with an unknown stamp...it was just a scrap I found in my stash from a long time ago.

Love your left over scrap and the stamping on the sand. Great job with that on your card. Beautifully put together and the pearl in the mermaid's hand is a fantastic finishing touch.

Love underwater and mermaid scenes. Super ocean swirls and the pearl seems to be lit. Awesome!

Oh my gosh! This is unbelievable stunning! I love that blue paper you used, really looks underwater ... the shiny papers you used goes so well with everything you have here - the sand looks amazing!!!

Stunning card. Mermaid, shells and seaweed, make such a wonderful underwater scene. Background paper is perfect underwater color and texture. Nicely done.

This is just a fabulous underwater scene! I love the watery background for your beautiful die cuts, the added glimmery paper and that single pearl in the mermaid's hand.
