mermaids and water babies


 As usual I found inspiration for my muse over at The graphics Fairy where I find so many images to use. I layered the mermaid onto vintage music paper aptly titled Sherman's March to the Sea and then glued it to a blue sparkly tag I made to have the feel of sunlight on the water. I found the MOP pendant at the thrift store and stamped dream onto vintage paper and glued on. I used text from the vintage Bobbsey Twins book I have. Some ribbon and fiber from my stash finished it off.
Hugs,
Ivy
