Oh, I do LOVE a mermaid theme....
For my tag this week...
I decided to alter another one of my mini cabinet cards..
...with lace, trims, shells, beads, crown, wings, heart button....
...and the mermaids tail is created from snippets of lace, which I've painted the edges with gold paint to define the scales...
Then I added a little chain of shell discs, gems , beads and charms as a finishing touch.
Can't wait to see all your enchanting mermaids and water babies.
Thanks for peeking!

How did you stop the snippets of lace sticking to your fingers?? Great tag, really like the 3d effect of the lace scales.
