Mermaids (x2)

I was really looking forward to this weeks theme as I love the thought that mermaids might exist almost as much as the possibility of fairies!

I made a mermaid tag a few weeks ago now as you all know and ever since I have wanted to make more along the same lines.  So first I made this pink mermaid enjoying the last of the evening sun.  I really enjoy being able to go to town with glitter and sparkles!   I had so much fun that I couldn't help myself and so I made........

Another one!!  This one was inspired by the quote on the first one.  I found a fab Mermaid Lullaby and quoted one of the verses on the top tag and so I decided to make one of those 'Mermaids Fast Asleep' on my second tag.

I took a few pictures as I worked so you could see how I made my tags but thought that would make for a long post so if you want to see how I did it then follow this link back to my blog for more detail.  I did want to share this last photo with you all and am wondering what your desks look like after you finished this weeks tag!!!!

Who knew how much mess two tags could make!!?  You'd think after using all those pretty sparkles it would have looked a bit prettier on my desk.  As you can see in time honoured crafting fashion I had all this space to start with and ended up working on a postage stamp sized work area!!

Guess what I am off to do now?! ........ Probably should be tidy up, but it is going to be Lunch then Tag Tuesday to see what fab things you have all been making ......oh and then just maybe, tidy up!

How cool to finally be a fully paid up member of the Tag Tuesday Team.  I love all the creative challenges but mostly I love that it is a place full of inspiration and mutual encouragement.

Have a fab week everyone - can't wait to see what next months themes are.
