I live with mermaids. Well, not in my house, exactly but darn close. I live within 10 miles of the famous Weeki Wachee State Park with live mermaid shows. It's been around since 1947 and believe it or not it is still a destination, kitchy as it is. We drove by there on Wednesday and they were at capacity by noon.

Thankfully, I keep a stash of papers that I have created with whatever media of the day I am into and I had this great yupo page of bubbles. I colored the mermaid with Zig Markers and die cut the seaweeds from some distress ink techniques I also had in my stash. The coloring and fussy cutting of the starfish and sentiment took the longest but made it in 55 minutes.

Oh, I love the Weeki Wachee mermaids! I saw them as a child and then again just a few years ago! Still magical! This card is a great tribute to them! I love your bubbly background and your mermaid is colored beautifully!
