Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge week 93

It's the lovely Janes turn to choose the Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge theme, and she has chosen Fairytales.
I based my DT card on the story The Little Mermaid ...
And you guessed it ... I just had to use this gorgeous Mermaid Tilda from the latest kit! She is masked on to the seaweed from the same kit. I coloured her using distress inks and then added lots of stickles!! I have kept it all simple as I really didn't want to hide the gorgeous dp ... it is so sparkly and glittery and I thought the circles would work well with the bubbles. I added some co-ordinating lace - it is supposed to be wavy! Non of my flowers looked right on ... so it looks a bit plain, I think I need to add to it .. .so another shopping trip is in order!

Recipe:
Stamp(s): Mermaid Tilda, seaweed
Colouring Media: distress inks (Secret Crafter)
Papers: MME Penny Lane
Embellishments: lace, stickles (Secret Crafter)

You make me giggle re the flowers - I have two boxes of flowers and it amazes me when I just can't find the RIGHT shade or size!!

Happy shopping - whats the odds you come back with more than flowers lol.
