Under the Sea

Hey crafters!

We're half way through the week, how is yours so far? It was mine and my hubby's 2nd anniversary yesterday! We celebrated by staying in. ha! Well we didn't actually celebrate yet the hubs doesn't have any vacation at this new job yet so the celebration had to wait until this weekend.

 I am so blessed with such a wonderful husband. I'm grateful every single day that God chose him for me.

So back to the card :) This week I am playing along with CAS-ual Friday's challenge, splish splash, anything you might see near the ocean.

Didn't I just get the Under the Sea set from Sweet Stamp Shop?! Well thank God! :)

I started by creating a seaweed "seat" for my little mermaid. I masked and stamped until it looked the way I wanted. I then stamped the mermaid on a scrap sheet, colored her and trimmed her out. Once I adhered her with dimensional adhesive I gave her top and tail a healthy coat of stardust stickles. I mean, aren't all mermaids glittery!? hehehe

Thanks for popping in! Hope your week is wonderful :)
