I tried to give this one a bit of a beachy feel using some jute mesh, I think it works quite well. The image is Mermaid Kira from the DigiStamp Boutique and I coloured with copics. I also added sparkle to her tail with a glitter Spica pen but it hasn't come thru' in the piccy (but guess what, and I'm sooo excited, a brand spanking new Sony Digital SLR camera was bought today, but more of that another time). The papers are by Doodlebug and I finished off with a little dolphin charm.

Hello, I'm Liz McGuire. I have been designing and making cards for over 10 years, serving on numerous design teams and completing assignments for various papercraft magazines.
Along with my cardmaking I like to try my hand at art journaling, memory keeping, smash books etc. And there is also my new obsession - planners and stationery! So there may be the occasional blog post on these topics.
I do have a real job but that's just to earn enough money to buy paper, stamps, pens and, of course, buttons!
Thanks for stopping by and do leave a comment and follow, if you like what you see.
