Isn't she perfect & perfect to use for this fabulous theme?! 😊🩷
I wanted to live up to the "magical" name of the stamp set ... so I created a magical ocean scene with gold embossing & watercoloring. I watercolored over the gold embossing with Lost Lagoon, Coastal Cabana, Melon Mambo, & Pretty In Pink. Make sure you use quite a bit of water when watercoloring so the colors bleed and blend together ... creating that magical ocean! 😍Unfortunately I am dealing with bad winter weather lighting. She's more stunning in real life. 😍 Hee. But hopefully you can get a good idea of how pretty she is! I love this little silhouette mermaid stamp also. All in all ... still very enamoured with this stamp set!
